The whole notion of writing down resolutions for the year scares me to death. Don't get me wrong, I love thinking about my goals & hopes & dreams & expectations I have for the year...but oftentimes {actually, if i'm being honest, it's everytime} by the time January is done, I've lost my motivation and determination to actually see the list through.
Just the other day, my dear friend showed me my 2010 list. Yep, just as expected, pretty much untouched. It sat exactly where it had been placed this time last year, perfectly folded and all.
So here it goes, here is my list - in no particular order...
I will ride my sweet little bike more.
I will sort out the state of my wardrobe once and for all.
I will sew buttons back on when they fall off - safety pin buttons are so last season.
I will bake yummy treats for my friends {& definitely eat less cookie dough along the way}
I will try to refrain from feeling the need to put a bow on everything and anything I see.
I will read the whole Bible before the year is out.
I will actually wear my glasses when I need them.
I will graciously and happily embrace change.
I will learn how to knit.
I will have a purposeful and positive thought life.
I will try to live well, laugh often and love unconditionally.
I will learn to master the art managing of my iTunes library without losing all my songs.
I will learn to love ironing.
I will jump in more puddles & embrace the weather in this rainy city.
I will make more time for my friends.
I will believe in miracles.
Some are simple, fail safe goals.
Some are mindset changes that will require more attention.
Some are personal goals that I hope will see my world enriched.
All are important and hopefully when the door closes on 2011, I can say that my life in 2011 was exactly how I'd hoped, dreamed, prayed & imagined it would be like.
I'm excited x
