Hey all! I know Holiday celebrations are just a few weeks away! Did we get all our Black Friday- Cyber Monday deals? Not me, I still have things to buy for people. I may even make a few gifts they are always more personal and friendly. I started thinking about the holidays and New years Eve and what it means to people to make resolutions.
Resolutions date back as far as biblical times. People used to resolve about things that had to do with harvests and farming. In the 21st century we are more concerned with diets, health, and money. People resolve to lose weight, quit smoking, and save money.
I wonder if resolutions really have any basis anymore. I meet more and more people who don't believe in making them for fear of knowing full well they will not keep them. I, myself, would love to make a resolution to get fit this year because I am getting into a health field. That would warrent me being fit to exemplify that I know my stuff! Then, I think, why? I should be able to commit and start NOW not wait until Jan. 1st! It would just be an excuse to put it off if I wait.
I think blogging and telling everyone what I am doing daily might just put me on the spot so to speak so that I do hold myself accountable! Hmmmmm.... I think I just challenged myself.... I may create a new blog for all my facebook friends to see....
Anywho! Happy Holidays! Have a great New Year... Resolutions or not!
