Well I suppose I should start with a Happy New Year. So there, it's done. Good
So have you all made your Resolutions? Have you managed to stick to them so far? Are you considering ditching them already?
I, personally, have not. I don't really see the point in them. Why should I? What difference does a single new day make to me, to choose to do something different/positive?! Why not just do that the day you suddenly decide you want to do it, whether it's March 5th, August 23rd, or whenever. It doesn't matter. In fact the fact you do decide to do it on Jan 1st often could be a case that you're not even doing it for the right reasons. You need to do this for you, not for anyone else, not to tell friends, not to say "my resolution is..."
I've started 2014 with a grumble I know, it's not the aim, it's meant less of that more of a personal feeling about something. I just think you should do something like giving up smoking when you want to do it, don't wait for a reason, don't wait for the convenience of Jan 1st. Do it right now, and do it because you want to do it.
People settle for things too often, too easily, from relationships, to life plans, to goods and services. Why should we, more often than not we deserve more, we're not around forever so enjoy everything whilst you can, or get too old to fully appreciate it. Don't live by the "I wish I did". Just do it, embrace the now.
Look at me, I've shitted on one thing, whilst totally embracing a cliché that sort of means the same thing. It's all part of my meaningless waffle. I suppose that's my resolution, secretly, without admitting it to myself, waffle more, care less, and make this blog look a bit nicer.
