There is no such thing as a perfect new year’s Eve and New Year’s day, that is the theory presented in this video. Perhaps you are still idealistic and believe that the new year absolutely must be ushered in with all of your friends…I do mean every single one of them! I was there once, long ago. If they don’t show to the gala dinner and dance,’well, they’re no friends of mine.’ You’ll party all night and into the wee hours in a glitzy, glamorous environment with fireworks and fire water, making unforgettable memories. Likewise, it may take the rest of your life to live down some of those unforgettable memories.
One night you realize that the crush of a horn-blowing crowd of rowdy revelers gives you a migraine. Something is changing. Soon after, you realize that the drunks on the road terrify you more than the thought of spending a quiet New Year’s Eve at home.
Congrats! When you realize the new year can be ushered in while wearing sweat pants, your life course is altered forever more – and perhaps for the better. No more frantic preparations, outrageous expectations, crushing disappointments – and agonizing hang-overs. Just a cozy evening making resolutions that only a Spartan could gladly carry out..Be gentle to yourself.
However you choose to celebrate, I wish you a safe and Happy New Year!
