2024 my new years resolutions; plans, dreams and goals ... Happy 2024!! Yes, we made it through another year. For some, including myself, this past year was littered with scrapes, bruises, disappointment, heart break, misunderstanding and even some tragedy. Of course on the brighter side of the year 2023, some of us we were lucky enough to find glimpses of happiness, deeper meanings of love, a plethora of new friends and how to have fun. Yes many of us learned some important life lessons, be it financial or social. Perhaps those lessons showed themselves in our romantic or business lives, or taught us (well I am speaking for myself here) that solid common sense decisions outweighed the emotional decisions. Yes my gut or instinctual feelings may have been great in guiding me correctly in a few areas, those decisions must be tempered with common sense for the most part. It is very fortunate for at least me, that the older I have gotten, the more experience I have to balance those decisions on. New Years evening, yes on the last night of 2023, I found myself walking down the strand toward Belmont shore (from Downtown Long Beach). It was a nice cool night to walk and also to reflect back on the year 2023 that was ending. The walk ended up being just over 6 miles start to finish. The sun had already dropped in the west, the evening air was brisk and yet not too cold. Maybe the lightweight North Face fleece jacket helped with that moderation of temperature. When I found myself walking south toward the Belmont shore pier, it brought back memories of a few of my escapades down in that area. Some were very sweet and innocent, such as meeting a couple of friends for lunch or the few walks on that very strand with a couple of other friends / people I met. Some a bit more salacious in refreshing the conversations with<b> lovers </font></b>/ casual partners before or during dinners (sometimes lunches) or initial coffee dates on 2nd street in Belmont or on 4th Street. My mind just streamed memories of a few of the encounters and the smiles on our faces. Currently while sitting at my desk, writing this and just thinking about what my resolutions were from last year. What did I want to accomplish? Where did I want to visit? What relationships did I want in my life? Maybe they manifested themselves or maybe none became reality. Honestly, I don't remember if I made any... I know that I wanted to be the best person I could be. I also know that I have wanted to live this life with integrity and honesty. Partners, lovers, paramours and even FWB's will cum and go. My desire is for me to have compassion, empathy, kindness first and true depth of conscience in (and with) all of my encounters. To work toward mutual understanding so to have honest conversations, laugh with those connections deeply, and emotionally feel those encounters / connections fully. What are your plans for 2024? New Years resolutions; do you make them?    “Sex is like air; it’s not important unless you aren’t getting any.” John Callahan |
