The Reckoning

It's that time of the year.  A New Year.  A new start.  Resolutions made.  But I wonder how many of us look back, look back at the resolutions we made last year and see whether we followed through with our good intentions, or made attempts to change our lives.  We have good intentions but not many of us do the reckoning!  A New Year is a good time to start anew, but with any resolution or intention we have to carry this with us day by day.  Each day is a new start, a day to start again, especially if we failed the day before.  It is that day by day intention that will allow us to make changes to our lives that will stick.  It is that determination and persistance that will make our resolutions reality.

Resolutions

Another New Year. Another chance to take stock of our lives. To look at the direction we are going in. Look forward to the path we want to take. We make our resolutions. But I wonder if these resolutions are ones we are able to attain, or if they are high ideals of the life we feel we should be leading. This year I think there only needs to be one resolution, to be kind to yourself and to other people.
