a years worth of goals

 I am currently sitting at my grandmas kitchen table watching a sunrise so beautiful, it looks like the sky is on fire.  I am reflecting on my past goals.  I have a few more days and  anything is possible.  I thought about this year being the last year that I participate in my goals.  Possibly out of laziness, probably because I have never been able to complete them before.  Yet something inside me still loves the adventure and the sense of purpose as well.  So shortly there will be another list, but for now this is the one.  I have until the 11th to complete.
