23 is just a weird number.
having a 23rd birthday is about as exciting as seeing tuesday follow another monday. no new privileges or rights to celebrate or pretend to exploit, most long-time friends have graduated and gone on with their lives and we're all getting big-person jobs, settling into a routine. i'm deciding right now i don't want 23 to be a routine year.
if ihad any wish to make for myself this coming year, i think this song comes closest to expressing it. i want to live in such a way that i don't have regrets- lying awake all day (silly night shift!) wondering how it would be different if i had said spoken up when i should have, done something radical when the opportunity presented itself, blessed someone expectantly when i had the chance that might never come again. if i live this year with God's approval being my ultimate aim and not holding back for fear of anyone around me, then it will be a good year indeed.
Those are some pretty awesome Birthday resolutions! =)
