Reflections on a good year gone past
This is probably one of the most self centered pieces of writing I'll do. Its so contrary to what Andy was preaching about this year, but I'd like to just reflect on this year in order to know where I am and know where I am going.
2004 has been a good year. Its been different, I've grown differently and I would say that I've become more mature in certain aspects.
New friendships have come, but also distancing of old ones. I've had new experiences, and I've learnt how to overcome fears to step up into leadership roles. I guess in summary I've learnt how to be responsible for myself and my actions.
So many things this year I'd like to write about. Firstly uni improved, only slightly but enough to make me feel proud of it. I guess I'm more aware of how to study now, I'm also more aware of what I enjoy studying. Uni improved also because I made new friends. Stuff in life is always more fun with company, and good company is such a precious thing.
Jobwise its been really good 2. Although I did have a bad experience at Elson Pow at the time, on reflection I learnt heaps and its taught me how to stand up for myself. My present job at myer is great, I'm always so thankful. And the friends I have there are great too.
Spiritually I've grown too. Taking up a leadership responsibility was unexpected, and its pushed me to know God more. And also in worship, its been a full year that I've been on the team and its pushing me to learn new keyboard skills and techniques.
There isn't anything I regret this year at all. I've become more comfortable with myself as a person. This doesn't mean I still don't get rocked by insecurities and bad stuff, but it means I feel better equipped to deal with crap that comes my way. God is truly my strength, in him I trust but I also feel he's left it up to me to be proactive and strong for my sake too.
Anyway I feel the pangs of sleepiness now
