Every year, another year. I think to, plan to, want to. Change and better myself. Do what? Quit smoking? Swear less? Yeah, all pretty words. I know deep down I carry the arrogance that I don't need to change. That I'm chipped in stone and complete. But the other me's would tell me fix this, fix that. How does one listen to oneself and ignore oneself all at the same time. ShadowlessTomorrow doesn't know... I never know. I've listened to external sources, friends and family. I grow hot under criticism, lying if I said else, but it helps. Its hard for one to guide their own growth. What has happened is that I don't have close ones brave enough to speak on matters anymore. So I'm left to my waking thoughts which always seem to come when I'm sleeping. Strange that.
So 2013... the 26th... I lost most of my 25th due to a fall, tear, and my knee will never feel the same. (More one that when I'm on my board again). I promise no changes. Promises are too easily made and easier broken. I will say that I will wake every day and look in the mirror and greet myself, and every night I will see the Same person. That I know I can guarantee. I know I can keep that wordless promise to myself.
Hello 2013,
ShadowlessTomorrow
