Auld Lang Syne

While this commercial does not encourage me to buy a Louis Vuitton, I LOVE watching this commercial. It is inspirational, and adventurous and awesome. It's like the commercial for my life.
Now, I'll admit this video is very transcendental (see, I'm a good Bryan College student!) But then again, I admit that I am a Christian with some slight transcendental tendencies. No I'm not a crazy meditating, get in touch with the spirit world type person. But I do think that God shapes us through our experiences.
To answer the question posed at the end of the video, "Does the person create the journey or does the journey create the person?" My answer: BOTH!
So with this in mind here is my one and only New Year's Resolution (ok... so I actually have more but this is the only one I'll hold myself to keeping): No matter where life takes me post-graduation, whether I get stuck in a crummy job, move back home, live off cheese and crackers or whatever happens, I'm not going to let myself give up on my journey.
Cheesy yes... but that's probably my biggest fear in life is just settling and giving up. Getting stuck in Dayton, getting stuck at home, forgetting my dreams, these are all things I fear. So I'm not going to give up and I'm not going to get stuck. That's my resolution for the new year and for the rest of my life.
Happy 2011!! I graduate this year! HOLY COW!

Awesome commercial! Along the lines of transcendentalism, have you soncidered reading Eat Pray Love? I'm the second second which explores the author's search for devotion in an Indian Ashram. I've been surprised at how many great nuggets about life, love, and beauty I've found in that book.
And, what the fat, Louis Vuitton!? This should just be a commercial for life!
Mmm- that is an excellent resolution! Also, I really love that commercial. Despite what I think about Louis Vuitton, that almost makes me like their company. :)
