HAPPYNEWYEAR

I HAVE NEVER BEEN A HUGE FAN OF NEW YEAR’S EVE. I LOVE WHAT IT REPRESENT & CELEBRATES, BUT THE NIGHT ITSELF PROVES TO BE SUCH A HUGE BUILD UP & OFTEN DISAPPOINTING. IF YOU ARE OUT ON THE TOWN, TRYING TO GET HOME IS TOUGH, EVERYTHING IS CRAZY BUSY & THERE IS JUST SO MUCH GOING ON! (I MEAN, MY IDEAL NYE NIGHT WOULD BE TO GO LUXE CAMPING ON A PRIVATE BEACH WITH RYAN GOSLING TO BRING IN THE NEW YEAR…BUT HEY…I THINK HE IS BUSY WITH EVA MENDES THIS YEAR, SO MIGHT HAVE TO MAKE IT ANOTHER TIME! :)

THE END OF A YEAR, HOWEVER, ALLOWS YOU TO TAKE A GLANCE BACK; CELEBRATE THE WINS. MOVE FORWARD FROM THE LOSES & LEARN A LOT FROM THE MISTAKES. I CAN TRULY SAY I HAVE LEARNT SO MUCH THIS YEAR, SOME LESSONS OBVIOUS, SOME A LITTLE MORE PAINFUL & ENDURING... BUT ENTERING MY 30TH YEAR OF LIFE, MY RESOLUTION IS TO LIVE MORE IN THE MOMENT. I SPENT THE BETTER PART OF MY 20’S PUSHING FOR MORE, MAINLY IN MY CAREER – ALWAYS LOOKING TO WHAT THE NEXT PROJECT / TASK / CONCEPT / ACHIEVEMENT WAS TO BE, IT WASN’T TILL I MENTALLY COLLAPSED ON THE FLOOR, THAT I HAD THIS REALIZATION – WHAT IS THE POINT OF STRIVING FOR MORE, MORE, MORE IF YOU DO NOT TAKE THE TIME TO CELEBRATE THE WINS ALONG THE WAY? I STRUGGLE AT TIMES TO PLACE WHAT YEAR CERTAIN EVENTS (POSSIBLY EVEN MILESTONES) IN MY CAREER & LIFE HAPPENED, BECAUSE I WASN’T LIVING IN THE MOMENT, I WAS LIVING IN ‘THE FUTURE’ IN A WHIRLWIND OF STRONGER / BETTER / FASTER (GO PUSSY CAT, GO!). THIS YEAR, I FEEL I HAVE REALLY LEARNT TO BE IN ‘THE NOW’ – TO LIVE IN THE MOMENT, TO ENJOY IT, TO LOOK AROUND, TO BE THERE & REALLY EXPERIENCE WITH MY OWN TWO EYES A BREATHTAKING MOMENT, TO CRY TEARS & THEN ALLOW YOURSELF TIME MEND & LEARN IN THE DARKER MOMENTS. TO TAKE TIME TO LAUGH TIL YOU CRY WITH YOUR GIRLFRIENDS, TO LOVE DEEPLY, TAKE TIME TO LISTEN TO PEOPLE & THEIR STORIES, TO SWIM IN THE SUMMER RAIN (ONE OF MY FAVOURITE THINGS TO DO), TO TAKE A ROADTRIP WITH A PURPOSE BUILD PLAYLIST…TO STILL LOOK AHEAD WITH ASPIRATION, BUT TO REALLY LIVE WITH PASSION IN THE VERY MOMENT YOU ARE.

AS WE APPROACH THE FINALE OF 2011, I WANTED TO THANK YOU ALL FOR A TRULY AMAZING YEAR. TEAM SW & MYSELF GET SO MUCH JOY FROM ALL YOUR INTERACTION ON OUR FB PAGE & ARE TRULY HUMBLED YOU CHOOSE TO BE PART OF OUR JOURNEY. I WISH YOU ALL A YEAR AHEAD OF PASSION (IN EVEN THE SMALLEST OF TASKS), BREATHTAKING MOMENTS (WHATEVER THAT IS TO YOU) & SUMMER BLUE SKIES (EXCEPT FOR THE SWIMMING IN RAIN MOMENTS!) FOR THE NEW YEAR AHEAD.

‘LIVE IN THE MOMENT, AND MAKE IT SO BEAUTIFUL IT WILL BE WORTH REMEMBERING…’

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
I LOOK FORWARD TO SPENDING 2012 WITH YOU ALL!

LOVE, SWx
