I don’t usually make resolutions come January 1. I’m fully aware that I most likely won’t keep up with them anyway, so rather than deal with the guilt of not keeping a promise to myself, I simply ignore the promise-making part and get on with my year. This time I’m trying something different.
I have a few things I’d like to work on, and it just now occurred to me that all my resolutions are based (sometimes loosely) on Jimmy Buffet lyrics:
- Treat my body more like a temple and less like a tent (Fruitcakes)
- Be more zen and enjoy life as it comes (Trip Around the Sun, Breathe In, Breathe Out, Move On)
- Follow more of my dreams (Someday I Will)
- Depend on myself alone for happiness (Tonight I Just Need My Guitar)
- Go more places that make me happy (One Particular Harbor)
Apparently, I just want to be more like Bubba.
