What is your New Year's Resolution?

[Gracie]

Yes, I know resolutions are corny, but...why not think about what we want for ourselves. Lets not make it political, either.

For me....my goal is to just chill as much as possible. Be kinder with those who have differing views and resort to name calling...and if I can't be kind then add more to my ignore list, lol.

I can't really change who I am, but I can change how I respond.


So..what's your resolution?

 

[Bleipriester]

Being tougher to those who fuck around with my life. Spit at them in the public, when they make their empty promises, roll their fat boywhores downstairs and establish a no-honk zone near my home.

The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider Freeways, but narrower viewpoints. We spend more, but have less, we buy more, but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness.

We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom.

We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.

We’ve learned how to make a living, but not a life. We’ve added years to life not life to years. We’ve been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor. We conquered outer space but not inner space. We’ve done larger things, but not better things.

We’ve cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul. We’ve conquered the atom, but not our prejudice. We write more, but learn less. We plan more, but accomplish less. We’ve learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.

These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character, steep profits and shallow relationships. These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes. These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill. It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and nothing in the stockroom. A time when technology can bring this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to share this insight, or to just hit delete.

Remember to spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever.

Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.

Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn’t cost a cent.

Remember, to say, ‘I love you’ to your partner and your loved ones, but most of all mean it. A kiss and an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you.

Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not be there again.

Give time to love, give time to speak! And give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind.

And always remember, life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by those moments that take our breath away.

SOMETHING TO PONDER: George Carlin

George Carlin's wife died early in 2008 and George followed her, dying in July 2008. It is ironic George Carlin - comedian of the 70's and 80's - could write something so very eloquent and so very appropriate. An observation by George Carlin: The paradox of our time in history is that we have...

How are you going to spit with that mask on?

So..what's your resolution?

To take the sickening corrupt perversion of our election system putting Joe Biden in office and turn it into a positive in my life just as I did with DJT.

 

[Hellbilly]

My New Years resolution is to keep being awesome.

 

[Anomalism]

I really try to avoid stuff like that. If it's worth doing as a resolution it was worth doing a month ago. If I make resolutions I'm really just procrastinating and making excuses. If it's worth doing then do it now.

 

[Disir]

I feel like I'm behind on doing things that I had wanted to do because the world has been shut down. I think that this year I will do some things for myself besides work. Like catch up on my road trips.

 

[Auld Phart]

Can't make a NY Resolution, without breaking the one I made 30 years ago to not make resolutions anymore.

My resolution is to learn how to better put everything into perspective.

By perspective, I mean that I am already 83 years of age, so before I can even imagine, I will soon be ...

To get an easier job since I find it difficult to walk.

If theres an award for the easiest to keep new year resolution, you win it.

One step after another. Try it. Don´t do both at the same time.

 

[Nosmo King]

My resolution is to repay the kindness and mercy showered on me by an outstanding group of medical professionals and my family!

My goal is to get back my 150 weight if I can't fall any farther.

God bless you always!!!

I resolve to write Vishnu a letter volunteering to become his next avatar. And then, once endowed with demigod powers, I plan to set the record straight; the entire record of human history.
