4 weeks into the new year, life have never been this busy.
last year didnt seemed to have an ending, i can hardly remember how i spent that last day of 2007, when the clock struck 12 way into midnight. it was a lazy "happy new year" to my lovely mom and it was back to some mundane stuff i got to complete everyday. and that was the end of JC1 life, that year of constant motion, unrest, surrealism. the year of "vehement deluges."
this entry is about promises. its about believing in yourself, and believing in believing.
why resolution?
why new year's resolution?
because i never believed in them. i could not remember when i forgotten about the need of constant rejuvenation, of sharpening the saw, the 7th habit of "highly effective people". my stand was that years were merely forms of recognition, of proper filing of things; yet time , i felt, were never once sectionalised into phases. everything from the time you were born, the past they called it, rides itself into the future, the you now is the summation of the yous 17 years ago. it became definite to me the crossing of 2007- 2008.
and i thought many didnt too. promises were made by myself, for myself, anytime i see fit. But have i really promised to promise myself? Or have i just gone by instincts the last year? Was i sharpening the saw, or was the saw sharpened by the obstacles that come my way? And as i stepped into a new "phase" of time, do i resign to my paradigm of time? Or is it about time I held to my promise years ago in the white shorts, the simple promise of being my very best?
And resolutions come alive once again in that very forgotten heart of mine. Oh yes, i want to make a promise to myself this "year". its a simple resolution of knowing that i have not forgotten about myself, of knowing that the promises i made stay in me forever. of being the one i can be proud of once more.
i never believe in that phrase that promises are meant to be broken. and i will hold through to that belief. or will i not? lets get moving.

copy. rephrase.
Will i sharpen the saw, or will the saw be sharpened by the obstacles that come my way?
