The Holi-daze has ended, and things are getting back to "normal" - whatever that is. A New Year is full of new promises, a time for making resolutions - promises to ourselves for a start to a better new year. Do you tend to keep your resolutions? In the past, I found that I didn't keep mine because I made them too lofty, too unattainable. I mean, lets be real, "Lose 50 pounds" isn't a very practical resolution, because at a safe loss of 1-2 lbs per week, it would take months to actually achieve! And maybe we are more successful if we make smaller goals that when we actually accomplish, we feel that much better about ourselves, and even more inspired to try for more!
Yes, I want to lose weight this new year, but I also want to find a way to be a happier person, finding time -- scratch that,
making time -- for the creative side of me. So my two concrete resolutions are simple ones: Take more pix/be creative, and smile more. :) Giving someone else a smile, if they give one back, perhaps it's a connection to the inner soul for a more peaceful me.
Sounds a little simplistic,
but with everything that's going on with family,
and my own feelings as I grow older,
simple is the order of the day.
