What Should My First Blog Post of 2012 Be About?

I have been pondering for a few days on what my first blog post of 2012 should be about. You know that point where you reach sort of a 'writers block' tangled with a anticipation of writing something timely and important? I mean what will 2012 be about? It is essentially a story that is just beginning, and like all new years it has its beginning and end and a whole lot in between.

Should my first blog post be about the last year? Or should it be about the new year? Should it be about goals, or accomplishments? Hmmm... This has been my puzzle for the least few days, and here it is already January 3rd and I have not written a thing!

Don't we have so much to look forward to in 2012? Think about it! There is a big election ahead of us, and then there is that 'end of the Mayan Calendar end of the World thing' to look forward to as well... I can hardly wait. That is all I am saying about that. However, those are all slated towards the end of the year in November and December. What about all the months before that?

How many home runs will be hit before then? How about how many touch downs? How about the Stanley Cup play offs, and the Super Bowl? What about the NBA finals, and the World Series? What about all those customers I have yet to meet, and the ones I am working with right now, when they later become homeowners?

How many chocolate chip cookies will everyone who reads this blog consume in 2012? What about bottles of wine? Or home cooked meals? What about all those great movies that have yet to be released, and all those novels that have yet to be read? Or those photos yet untaken?

How many great moments lie ahead? How many great blog posts will I write, and how many great ones will I read which I wish I had written?

How many videos on Youtube are not even filmed yet, but will go viral this year? Think about it! So much lies ahead, it is hard to look back! There are snowy days, and rainy days and days filled with sunshine and bliss.

There are good times and there are bad times, and all the other times in between. There are people that will be born, and others that will pass on, and all this will happen in 2012 too!

Charles Dickens once wrote: "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to heaven, we were all going direct the other way - in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only."

So much to write about in my first blog post of 2012. So much to look forward to in both excitement and trepidation. I wish everyone a very exciting year, and may you have the lions share of all the good things that are to happen this year! (Okay, I am clicking 'post to blog' now! Onward and upward!)
