Resolutions

I do not make resolutions to begin each new year. Instead I make a daily choice to breathe deeply and do the best I can at all I do...
Happy New Year to all of you! May it bring good things!



Resolutions

Tasting the new year
In sips of chilled champagne
And whispering trite resolutions
Has made it clear to me...
Time moving on
Is not measured
By empty bottles
Or words said and heard.
It is measured with
Every breath we take,
How deeply each touches us,
And how much we look
Forward to the next...

This makes me want to weep.... dunno why, but does. It is beautiful and shows that words are not useless, after all. It leaves me, "breathless!" Happiest of all New Years for you, Dear Friend. - Bill

You are so right about this and I gave up on making New Year resolutions myself for the very same reason. I think we need to thrive each day at just being us.

Good thought! I have not made NY resolutions for years... I just look forward with curious anticipation... I think of New Years as a big box of Cracker Jack's you just never know what you're going to get when you open that box.

Cheers SPP and Happy New Year!
Dan
