resolutions are a funny thing. first of all i don't make them at this time of year. i really don't feel that january 1 is the beginning of anything. a few years ago my dearest janny and i decided that the new year ACTUALLY begins in the fall and that is when resolutions should be made. and resolutions should not have anything to do with trapping a man, losing weight, being more kind or anything like that. they should be broad and general and more of a theme song that you want to play throughout the next year of your life.
a few years ago we resolved to 'do more things,' we took advantage of the opportunities (many free) to do new and fun things in our city and outside of it. then last year we resolved to 'take care of ourselves' and that too was a success. nutrition, running, and welness took over our vocabularies this past summer.
i don't think we should make resolutions for things we want to change about ourselves, but about things we want to improve about ourselves. if you don't like what you are starting with, what makes you think you'll like where you'll end up either?
