I RESOLVE

I know it’s tradition to make resolutions at the beginning of each year that has always been the way… but I have a list of resolutions I try to keep to every day: I resolve to tread a little softer, to tiptoe and walk barefoot on the Earth to remind myself everything that’s been created… has beauty…value and worth. I resolve to walk a little slower… no matter how fast time moves around me to find the joy and beauty and the wonder in everything around me. I resolve to watch a few more sunsets, listen to more waterfalls… watch a few more rivers flow and to be a little kinder to those I do not know. I resolve to be a little quieter…to while more time away to listen to the birds, the trees, the wind… and to what other people have to say. I resolve to sing to dance to smile to laugh to love a little more Because I believe this is what we’re all created for. I may not always keep each resolution which is something all people who make a resolution fear… but I only have to wait one day to fix this…not an entire year. Making daily resolutions gives my heart each day a chance to soar… and if I’m lucky helps to make me a better person than I was the day before. Being a better person than I was the day before… this daily resolution is the best… because, when I stop to think about it… It is the resolution…that generates the rest.
