Twenty-One Years Old Resolution: Be the Best that I can be.
And be much more muchier.
I'm a sucker for quotes. And Dreams. And Art. But I'm a huge sucker for quotes. So naturally, Johnny Depp drew me in with this from "Alice in Wonderland"....
"You used to be much more muchier. You've lost your muchness"
- Mad Hatter to Alice.
Basically, Mad Hatter is saying "What in the world happened to you?! You used to be so intriguing and full of life!" And so this year, I am in finding my muchness. Because I have become a little too efficient, a little too busy, a little too boring. I am finding my muchness in a year-long resolution.
I have never been a fan of new years resolutions--to cliche....I guess. But anywho, I decided to do a sort of year-long resolution for my 21st year of life. Every month I have decided to challenge myself. Some things are just things that I love; and a part of being muchier is living your life richly. And other things are healthy, interesting, or, just plain soul-healthy. I'm doing this because I really want to enjoy the world, the people, and beautiful things in my life. I don't want to let it keep passing me by.
