New Year's Resolutions 2016
That's where she stopped, her pen in the air waiting for inspiration.
Nothing
What could she do in 2016 to better herself? To show she had advanced? To show that she was growing, as a person in her own right?
No clue
Her resolutions from 2015 had gone completely ... incomplete, it was embarassing. Which was exactly why she didn't share her resolutions with anyone, as she was sure to have somebody on her back about one thing or another.
In the last year, she had loved, she had lost, and she had learned. It's better to love and lose, because it's only then that you know you have experienced, and only then that you know you have learned.
She had learned to love her flaws, many and all-encompassing as they may be; she had come to terms with the idea of potential anxiety, with stress and its backlashes, with public speaking being a no-go. Acceptance was a thing,and it had happened, and she was proud.
Somehow, she had grown, and was expected to grow further in the next year.
So why not write what she thought? What she thought was best for 2016?
Her pen dipped towards the paper, scratching against the page in true biro fashion.
Her New Year's Resolutions for 2016?
Be happy

I had a different prompt for this, but it required much more fleshing out than I currently have creativity for, so this is what you get!
Not gonna lie, it's based on my year, what I've learned about myself,and stuff, and it's short as hell, I'm so sorry!
Now Imma work on my TV favourites, so I'll go do that!

  1. Wow! This is great!
    I totally agree with this. Each year, no matter how dull or exciting it seems at first, does manage to teach you a lot of lessons!
    Stay awesome as ever, Eve!
    Much love,
