Resolutions
At first I decided I wasn't going to do any new years resolutions. I was thinking, screw bettering myself - I want my life to be organic. I was going for a constantly changing and growing and evolving life. I was really grooving on the notion of just letting life happen, swaying in the breeze, laughing into the wind & loving it all.
THEN... after being inspired by the resolutions on Jeannine's Journey ,it occured to me that SOME things I am doing now might actually be keeping me from swaying in the breeze and organically mutating into my enlightened self. So. Here are a few new years resolutions after all.
1) Try to be positive. This doesn't mean laugh when someone falls down or to type LOL after every sentance on instant messanger, it just means to try very hard to think thoughts of empowerment more often than not. I always used to think that you were even born positive or not, and then my boss Susan said to me one day that no one is born the person we want to be, we have to work at it.. I was freaked out by the concept at first but now I've decided that I like it. It means evolution is even more possible than it was before. It means I can be anyone - I can be me - which was created by bits and peices of everyone I've ever admired. The more I think about it, the more I LOVE the concept.!!
2) No fast food, ever. I really, really, really fucking mean it. Ever. Never ever.
3) Take a bit more pride in myself, try to buy some new clothes and cut my hair when it needs it. Pay a little more attention to grooming.
4) Always wear socks. T is from California so she naturally doesn't like to wear socks, and that's fine with me, but for myself I think I am going to choose socks from now on. I tried to toe free-ball, but it just isn't working for me. The resolution here is to keep socks clean, sorted, and available for my feet at any given time.
5) Get birthday cards in the mail ON TIME. Don't cheese out with e-cards.
6) Do the things that are hard to do, even when I don't want to do them. If they are nessesary, just do it.
7) On the other hand... Don't freak out when things are not perfect. They don't have to be. As long as you eventually do the dishes (see number six) than it's okay - maybe I will give myself a 24 -48 hour turnaround.....
Thats it, folks... 7 easy steps to becoming a better me.
