Write a good one&#8221;.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Brad Paisley<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I could probably just tear the page out of any journal and reuse the resolutions for that year. Eat better, exercise more, and on and on&#8230;But this year is different, this year I am going to be realistic and make resolutions I think I can accomplish! Not that I made totally unrealistic ones in previous years, but evidently they were because looking back on them now I didn&#8217;t accomplish but one or two of the ones I wrote. However, I am not the person I was then. The past two years have changed me. And I hope for the better!<\/p>\n<p>My ten resolutions for 2016 are:<\/p>\n<p>1. Everyday I will pause for a few moments and take time to reflect on what is going on. I will be grateful for everything I have and find joy in that moment.<\/p>\n<p>2. I will keep on keeping on&#8230;.what is the alternative? To give up..well that isn&#8217;t going to happen. I have been keeping on for 66 years now and I&#8217;m not about ready to give up now. One of the things I will be &#8220;keeping on&#8221; is my writing. I started writing this year and plan on continuing to do it and maybe even more of it in 2016!<\/p>\n<p>3. I resolve to find more &#8220;Good&#8221;. I try to do this everyday already and as hard as it is sometimes to find it.. I do manage to find one good thing a day. I want to find more of it. And if I can&#8217;t I will be the &#8220;good&#8221; myself. Everyday!! There has to be more out there, I just need to find it!<\/p>\n<p>4. Check off more things on my &#8220;Bucket List&#8221;. Our time here is limited. I must remember this and &#8220;do it now.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>5. Spend more time with people I care about. I have done more of this in 2015 and reconnected with several dear friends and family members. But I am going to do even more of it in 2016. We spend way too much time with people who don&#8217;t give us joy. We need to be with people who raise us up, not pull us down!<\/p>\n<p>6. I resolve to stop taking things so seriously. Life is too short to get upset about the guy cutting me off in traffic, although I wish it wouldn&#8217;t happen, I don&#8217;t need to let it ruin my day. I will laugh about his stupid haircut and move on with my day. Laughter is the best way to diffuse anger and I plan on laughing more. So if you see me laughing, you may or may not have annoyed me&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>7. I will continue with my new plan to get &#8220;dressed up&#8221; every single day&#8230; It makes me feel good. And, I have the clothes, I might as well wear them. I was inspired by this quote&#8230;&#8221;Get up, dress up, show up and never give up.&#8221; ~ Regina Brett<\/p>\n<p>8. Last year was my year of live concerts&#8230;I resolve to hear even more live music this year! And not only to hear music but to &#8220;Dance&#8221; to it! I used to love to dance and did it all the time. At least several times a week. I was truly a dancing queen..This coming year is my year to &#8220;just dance!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>9. I plan to travel more and see places I have never seen. These places don&#8217;t have to be far away or costly. There is so much to see all around us, if we just look for it. How many times do we go by a little town or attraction and say, wow, I never knew this was here? Well, I am going to go there next year! Who wants to come along?<\/p>\n<p>10. And finally, I am going to take better care of &#8220;me&#8221; next year. For most of my life I have taken care of or gave more time to someone other than me. My kids, my parents, my employers&#8230;.they all came first and I got whatever time was left over. And there was never a lot of it left, believe me. But 2016 is going to be different&#8230;.now it&#8217;s\u00a0time for &#8220;me&#8221;!!!<\/p>\n<p>I would love to hear some of your resolutions? Do you make them? Do you keep them?<\/p>\n<p>Happy New Year to you all! May 2016 be a year filled with joy and peace! ~Hellion<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Tomorrow is the first blank page of a 365 page book. Write a good one&#8221;.
