The Year of The Dragon: 2012

Hmm…now where is that NASA worthy telescope when a girl needs one?

For surely, there is a comet hurtling towards earth right at this very second!

Last time I checked, Bruce Willis was busy with a new girl, Arnold Schwarzenegger (thank you Google, for aiding this catastrophic spell check disaster) may or may not be rekindling his love with his wife and well, hmm…who else saves the world again?

Hmmph…they are ALL busy, thank you very much!

As we all know by now…It’s the year the world should end* (*according to many sources, including but not limited to “They”---you know when “ they say so, we should listen to “them”), and apocalyptic stuff should happen, starting with the great obsession that plagues most people at midnight on December 31^st. ( I mean, when else do otherwise normally well adjusted individuals wonder about orchestrated lip locking and guzzling alcoholic---or at least “sparkling”--- beverages at the chime of midnight?)

 Many are fostering newly nibbled nails and wracking their brains, trying desperately to latch on to the best version of the most attainable New Year’s Resolution, and others yet (i.e.: me!) are still wondering just how we will ring in the New Year!

 To cap off the rampant neuroses, I haven’t checked the networks yet, nor TV Guide, but I am fully expecting the End of The World movie blockbusters to be playing in loop right now! (Hmm…does anyone actually view TV Guide network anymore? If you are, thumbs up for that! I admittedly don’t even know what channel that is on anymore).

But here we are again, hours away from a promising New Year.

The world is ripe with possibilities! And once again, we are ready to seize the day!
Now I have found that if we hold true to our convictions, the idea of “I Can,” will definitely last throughout the year and beyond.
I have also found that claiming and clinging to a higher power, is quite possibly THE greatest propellant of willpower, and folks? I intend to do just that!

 In the Chinese Zodiac, 2012 is the year of the Dragon, a symbol of success and happiness! It’s a great year to be born**!  

A great year to make and fulfill plans! So go ahead, start your new business! Plan that world trip! Hit SEND on that email to that guy that you know you really, really like! (But make sure he is single first…)
Do what is right for you!
Extract that toxic person from your life…right now!
Go ahead, get married! It’s going to be a bright and bounteous year!

Why?

Because I said so. And you should say it with me!

Because we live what we preach. We become our thoughts, and our thoughts become us.
Quite frankly, I see no reason why we can’t all have our 180 degree Success Stories, this very year ahead.  (God’s willing.)
Be sure to sing them out loud once you’ve achieved that goal.  Testify and shout the glory!

**Some of you may not realize this yet, but if you are indeed shooting for a bundle of joy in 2012, you haven’t got much time! Seriously! You’ve got 3 months, tops…March is your cut off. No pressure or anything. But I have been eavesdropping (well actually…I have been listening intently to my friends as they speak…but eavesdropping sounds sooo much more dramatic and well, 2012 is going to be big, and in the spirit of excess…I shall practice a bit of hyperbole). So for those of you that want to invite the stork into your households…or for those that are definitely planning to wait, and wait some more, I think I should write a special note for this very set of folks…more on that…later.**
