New Years Resolutions

Ever wonder why people feel the need to have New Years resolutions. Is it because it's the New Year that we decide to have a resolution; kinda like out with the old (year) and in with the new (year)...

So what are my 2010 New Years resolutions? I learned long ago that I never stick to my resolutions. Like millions of people year after year I make myself promise that I will workout more and eat healthier but as we all know as time goes by my resolutions always fall by the way side. And every year of course I convince myself that "this year is different" and I am REALLY going to stick to my guns and resolutions that is.

hmm...so what does 2010 hold (by way of resolutions) and how will this years resoultions differ from the past? How can i guarantee that come February I haven't tossed my resolutions to the curb as I have in the past!

In 2010,I will again focus on health and fitness. But this year I want to take it to a whole new level! I want to focus not only my physical health but my mental and spiritual health. 2009 made me realize that life is too short to be involved in unhealthy relationships/friendships etc. and that I need to focus on surrounding myself with people that will enhance my mental and spiritual health. Too many young and important people died in 2009 and it made me realize that at any moment any of us can go (by go I mean pass). But the real question that I pose is "if I were to leave this earth today, would I be prepared?" Prepared for what?....prepared to meet my creator and prepared for what is to come next. Did I live my life to the fullest? Did I acheive all that I set out to? Did I leave with the wisdom to know that those I left behind will be taken care of? I know these are some big tough questions that have no clear cut answer but it makes you think doesn't it?!


So what are your resolutions and are they accomplishable or will you have forgotten about them come March?!

  1. My sister has a blog? What? No way! I am in shock. Call 911!! I can't believe I just read my sister's blog post. HOLY COW!

    Ok ok ok... I am done being stupid. Great post, sis. Loved the questions posed. I have no resolutions this year. For me... it's "Things To Do" and they most certainly will get done. I'll have to post them soon. Love you
