I was at an appointment the other day and a lady asked me if I had any new years resolutions. I immediately responded, no, I don’t do them…
My track record with resolutions are horrendous. Ha! Not untypical of most people I suppose. And honestly I haven’t made a resolution in many years mainly because I know I’ll screw it up anyway or forget about it. *sulk*
However, the thought of making resolutions or goals has always challenged me to search.
Why can’t I keep them? Even short term ones. Well, really, I’m a work in progress. I wish I had it all together but I don’t. Failure has had its way with me but this year something new is rising in me. An understanding after all these years of wrestling about failed attempts and weaknesses. Finding joy in the journey, even just a little speck means so much to me. It helps me push through. I suppose its like faith. Ya just need a mustard seed size to make it through. Hmmm, 🙂
So, do I have goals, a resolutions, visions, dreams I want to accomplish. Heck, yes! So I tell myself keep chasing them. Keep pursuing them. Write the little victories down, learn from mistakes. Never give up.
“Big” things are in store for 2018. This I know. My life isn’t a waste, no matter how small or insignificant it may seem on the grand scale of things. Dreams and visions are still very much alive. As alive plus more than years past. So goals, I’ll still need to set. Resolutions, I’ll keep working on those. But my one focus, just keep moving.
My life is for a reason and I feel it. And I know it.
