End of the 2012 World

Well Aloha!
The year is wrapping up and the world didn't end.  Take that, Mayans!  Once again, blogger seems to have a new formatting.  Oh well.  This I can handle.  Want to know what I'm discovering?  I am a bad person.   I really need to do something to get this under control.  I need more compassion.  I don't want it, but I need it lol. 
It was a small Christmas this year.  Mom has been in the hospital and hasn't gotten out much which is fine. I don't want really anything in particular.  I've gone into that phase now that I'm 30 where collecting a bunch of stuff doesn't matter as much to me.  Very very strange.  I have come to the realization that it's better to really think about someone and give a meaningful gift than just to give anything.  Maybe it's better in some situations to give no gift at all.  You know what I mean?  Like that saying if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all.  Maybe for the case of gift giving it should be, if you can't give from the heart, don't give.  It's better to be thoughtful or to receive a gift from someone who took some time to think about things. 
I have so much more to say but I'm not really able to get it out right now.  I just want to finish by saying I'm working on it.  I'm not perfect but soon I will be better.  Thanks to everyone who helped me realize it.  Thanks to everyone else who has been an angel in my life when I haven't noticed it.  I'm sorry to the people I've hurt and lost contact with over the years.  I'm sure there is more than one person.  I may post again before the year is up about all the rest of this stuff. 
Finally, props to the Pope for his Christmas sermon this year.  I thought it was genius.
