I have finally settled on my New Years resolution. I have been thinking about it a lot, coming up with ideas and discarding them. I could not quite get my finger on a way to set a goal for what it is I want to accomplish. I know I want to live my life more deeply. I want to be more present. I want to show more gratitude. I want to experience joy. I want to drink in the beautiful craziness around me. I want to RELAX. I want to be a better sister and friend. How do I put these desires into a standard goal format?
Finally it hit me. I CAN'T.
I realized that all of the above desires really boil down to one thing.... I want to have no regrets.
I don't want to lie in bed at night and wished I had spent my day differently. I don't want to let opportunities to grow and love and learn pass me by. I want to live a good life and never look back.
So this is my resolution:
One year from now, don’t regret a single day from 2012.
