That's ancient history...

About a week ago I drove past one of my ex girlfriends house. We ended things on good terms and I thought it would be cool to stop by and say hello one day, but I know I never would. A couple of days later I was going through a box of Christmas ornaments and I happened to stumble upon a holiday-themed picture frame with a picture of me and my then girlfriend Sam. I think it's funny how things happen, seemingly random, but at the same time they are too coincidental to ignore. So today I wrote her a Christmas card asking her how she's been and how her family is. I also included the picture. It would be neat to catch up and see how things have changed in a 4 year span.

I figured out my first New Years resolution tonight: Try not to let things in people's past affect how your future relationship with them is. I think this is going to be a tough one for me. I've always been one to rehash the past or dwell too much on things that have happened. This year, and hopefully for many years to come, I won't let that bother me and my attempts to form better relationships with family, friends, and women.

This past week I've been taking my vitamins, working out, and playing basketball. I've been in a slightly better mood aside from yesterday's fiasco. And although I haven't done a whole lot since break started, I feel like the change in demeanor and environment has been great.
