In 2011 I will...

What is your New Year's Resolution?

Mine - I don't have one.

Each time a new year rings in, folks are always asking, "what's your new year's resolution?"

Do I want to lose weight, sure. 

Eat healthier, of course. 

Be a better person, always. 

But by the end of the year, you find that you've had stress, hurts, pains, disappointments, etc. that has helped you put on yet another 10 pounds; made you grab the biggest bag of potato chips (and dip, in my case); and of course, used a couple of unkind words to a few choice people >:)

So I say, while it's great 'making' a new year's resolution, it's time you actually do something about it. 

In this new year - keep a journal!



Everyday, write something that's on your heart. 

Whether it's one word -

Ratz! 

Or a novel -

Today started off terrible!  The clouds came, lighting flashed, thunder roared, then the rain poured.  And to top it off, while I was soaked and wet, Ms. Thang came walking up in my face asking me about my man...

When this year is coming to an end, you can read back through your journal and really know what New Year's Resolution to ring in, in 2012.

If you've already

gotten this journal thing down pat,

and you already know

what to do differently this year

let us know.
