The architect wouldn't waste time building a staircase to nowhere

So guys and dolls, i first want to wish YOU a happy new year, may it have blessings, lessons and a few cheeky surprises in store. I for one have had an eventful 2013. Moving away from my hometown, safety of student dorms and into my new home whilst adjusting to 'adulthood' in other words bills has been challenging, but has turned out to be touch wood a success! I'm in my second year and term of uni, studying English lit. Which sort of explains my abnormal desire and passion for writing on top of essays. That in mind, I have a lot to share and uncover over the upcoming year, i purposefully wrote it here so that in moments of doubt and pure laziness, someone somewhere expects me to actually prove it :) And if nobody does well, it's still on the internet and i can tick start blog of my to-do for all that's worth.

For now i just want to focus on the idea on New Years and let everyone know that once the clock hit 12 i became unrecognizable, an improved maturer, worldlier version of myself. Just kidding. If only it were that simple and one day could start a chain reaction that would lead to the re-invention of my character. That on the 31st of December a mysterious force is present giving everybody the insight and willpower to instantly change there lives, or is that just the ploy for a bad cosmetic ad, ether way it's favoring a lie. New years day is more like a fairy god mother, full of promise and insight of who we could become. A void of promise and possibility. Only there is a slight difference, the new us begins at 12 and is rudely interrupted by the reality of 12 the next morning with or without hangover. Then poof just like that the old us creeps back into bed sometimes in actual bodily form *cringe* or just as inconveniently into our thoughts.

The point being the idea of a quick fix is forever tempting but the voice causing all that noise, preventing you from being a resolutions nightmare because you're already living how you want to regardless of the date needs to be heard, rationalized with and if its acting stubborn strapped to a firework and blown to pretty pieces. 
Find your inner voice, give it what it needs, commit and listen to it and you'll find no need to rack your brains for a benefiting New years resolution, you will be on the path your heart chose. What can be more worthy of celebration.  

I think every individual has his or her own power, and it's a matter of working, taking time and defining what that power is.
