Happy New Year.

I created this blog with the intention of only talking about Fashion, but with my last post about how I helped needy people during the holiday season, I have decided that I don't want to only talk about my opinion on fashion, but everything else I love, think, and believe in too. I just want to talk, and share all of my thoughts with you, not just my thoughts on fashion.

As for the New Year, the first year of the 2nd decade of the 2000s, I have decided that my New Years resolution is to forgive my imperfections, so I can be the one who loves me the most (Also a Brett Dennen song).  I feel that I am too hard on myself and get disappointed easily when I make mistakes, and this is all because I, like everyone else on earth, has maintained their specific images by doing and acting the way that people expect them to. For example, if someone is a stoner, a nerd, a good student, a football player, or anything else, they think about those particular images every second and minute in order to do and act the ways that people of those images act. In order to succeed in life, we must free ourselves from the limited images that we portray, and just GO. This year I am going to forget about all the images and facades, and just live. I do not want to live a limited life, and neither should you. We should all forgive our imperfections, especially if that means trying something new or something others wouldn't expect us to do ( I am not talking about drugs. Just like hobbies, sports, etc.). I do not want to live a life where I would be judged for doing something I wouldn't usually do. We shouldn't judge each other, but instead encourage the fact that we are opening our minds and hearts to what else is out there. I also want to forgive my imperfections by stop worrying so much about the clothes on my back or the makeup I am wearing. Of course, I love clothes and makeup, but life is just fine without it. I am not saying that I am going to stop wearing makeup and nice clothes, but I am saying that I am going to stop thinking that I NEED those things in order to maintain my image. I have many imperfections, as do you, and nothing in the world can make us perfect. There will always be flaws, and the only thing we really can do is love and accept them, which will potentially lead to fully loving ourselves. That is my goal for 2009: to learn to completely love myself. Not such a bad idea, huh?
