Hello 2017.

Just realized my post from yesterday had the incorrect year on the header.

Pretty much sums up 2016 for me, I reckon.

I'd love to be able to tell you all about how much I've evolved in the past 366 days (leap year) but really, I didn't. 

2016 saw me inch closer to the half century mark and given the way my last decade came and went, I have to tell you I'm not looking forward to it.

But that is officially a year and nine months away.

I mentioned in yesterday's blog that 2017 begins my search for not only normalcy, but happiness in life. 

To be perfectly honest, I have no idea how I'm going to reach this goal, but I do want to get there and as it happens with everything worthwhile it doesn't look like it's going to be easy.

I'm okay with that though.

One thing that will be a large part of my search will be a greater emphasis on not letting things bother me, particularly with things I can't control. 

My ability to do that was tested in the final hours of 2016 when one of the reasons a significant event occurred 17 years ago was revealed to me. 

This I will go into in greater depth in a later entry, but my reaction to the revelation really hit me hard and it proves that my quest isn't going to be simple as I said before.

More on that later...2017 is underway.
