Today, I Resolve
Today, I resolve…
…to finalize important plans
and get them underway,
…to eschew unkind words
and displays of anger,
…to help someone become
the person they want to be.
Today, I resolve
…to repair something
I left in disarray,
…to come to the aid of
someone in danger,
…to demonstrate the values
of fairness and honesty.
Today, I resolve
…to be a better person
than I was yesterday,
…to do a good deed
for a total stranger,
…to make life easier
for those around me.
Today, I resolve…
…to make the world we live in
a better place,
…and, obviously, I need
to start with me!
