Goal for 2012

Five days ago, I wrote down my thoughts about turning 29.

“I have done a lot of growing, learning, hurting, and healing during this year and for this reason, I have a feeling that 29 will be a good year in the life of Meghan.”

Two days later, feeling proud of myself that I had so accurately and openly identified my feelings about this new year, my friend Logan stumped me with the question: “So what is your goal for 2012?” Dangit Logan! Just when I thought I had finally reached a new level of introspection and self-discovery you go and ask me a question like that.

Well, crap. I had no idea.  But then I heard Zac Brown Band’s Quiet Your Mind:

I hear the waves
Sun beatin’ down on my shoulders
It’s a near-perfect day
Wishin’ I wouldn’t get any older
They say that it’s gone ‘fore you know it now

Quiet your mind, soak it all in
It’s a game you can’t win, enjoy the ride

I feel the change
Goin’ on all around me
It’s strange
How I’m taken and guided
Where I end up right I’m needed to be

Quiet your mind, soak it all in
It’s a game you can’t win, enjoy the ride

So my goals for 2012: to quiet my mind, soak it all in, embrace the fact that I’m exactly where I need to be, and I definitely intend to enjoy the ride!
