it's due time for an update (as bee so graciously reminded me!)
i was glancing through my list... and i dunno, i'm SURE this is cheating, but there were things on it, that just didn't feel right... wasn't what i was 'going for' or... were just plain unrealistic.
Some of the things i spent hours pouring over to make sure my list was timeless and... realistic, it just didn't make sense anymore. It's been almost a year since i've started this list, and some of these things, though i've begin to make a dent, are not representative of my life now.
Last year (around this time) was a time of change. things were happening. people around me were changing. i desperately wanted to cling onto some unspoken dreams. Now, being a new person, with a new perspective on life... some of these things are just not important anymore.
in the spirit of list-making, i truly believe the 101 is meant to drive me to reach goals. not deter me from looking at this list and realizing i'm such a failure. so on that note... i made some edits to my list.
i am SURE... POSITIVE this is 'against the rules'. but... i think goals are good. goals evolve. what makes it 'wrong' to change these goals now that life has shaped out to be different?
does that mean i should 'start over'? Maybe. but i think ultimately, the point of this list thing is to keep me on track, and make me grow.
so here's the list - a bit revamped. most of the stuff is still the same, just a bit more specific, and a bit more realistic.i still have about 1.5 years left so i think i can manage still!
