For 2010:
I want it to be simple. I will take what comes and deal with it when it does, but I want to be humble. I know there will be some really hard times in the next months; but I just want to stop worring about being good enough for every one else and just be good enough for ME!

Happy 2010 everyone!! May it bring good things for you and your family!
