Forgiveness

Today was Yom Kippur and it's the day of atonement.  This is a day when Jews ask for forgiveness from God and from others from sins that were don consciously or unconsciously.  I think my major sin this year has been that I have been neglectful of my relationships and commitments.  I have been neglectful of this blog because I've been caught up in stupid stuff.  For this, I ask your forgiveness.

As this is a new year for Jewish people, I have a few things that I'm working on that are my goals for the upcoming year.  One of the things that I am continuing is to get healthy.  I still have at least 50 pounds to lose, which may take 2 more years.  The next goal is to get my finances in order, which will also take a year plus to do.  Those are my main two long term goals.

As for short term goals, I have a few.  The first is to take my national certification for pharmacy.  I would love to be able to get more money and be able to have a career in pharmacy as I really do enjoy it.  I also want to finish researching and come up with a cost plan for Pile of Good Things.  It's a cause that is still relevant to what is going on in many capitalist countries, but I will start small.  Mental health effects everyone.  I would also like to finish my writing course.  I have 20 lectures left. 

I also hope to be a better friend and writer this coming year.
