Resolution Revolution

New Year's resolutions make me wonder why people wait 364 days to better them selves. Good intentions they are, but why wait? Another day gone. Another year passes with goals undone and people to call. Every day holds promise. If only you try.

Sure you may hold on through January, but April comes and April goes, regret sets its teeth and takes a bite. With winter gone and Spring underway, you start over and say "I'll start now."

You remember to keep your written resolutions, for a while anyway. But the warmth of Summer and evening walks take priority in your mind. A sudden reminder you say "This time I mean it." So on you go resolutions in hand.

Autumn's colors are a welcome sight. Summer's faded memory of beaches, walks and bikes. Replaced with hay rides, pies and Thanksgiving with loads to eat. Rainy days with umbrellas in hand, we see change happen through nature's delight.

As Winter sneaks in and winds blow, I wonder what happened to those tings which opened this year? Thanksgiving gone, snow on the ground, Christmas behind me and a new year upon us.

Time to start over. Again?
