New Years Resolution


Do you go through this every year? You know, a list of crap that you want to do in order to improve yourself. I do it - and the list is pretty long.

But a very wise friend of mine once told me that I should make one, and only one, real resolution a year. Something that will move your life in a positive, productive manner. You see, my friend is a Geshe in the Sakya tradition of Tibetan Buddhism so he understands how everything is interconnected. The idea being that if you improve one aspect of your life the other things you want to change will be affected by that improvement and also change in a positive manner. And it is, of course, easier to maintain one resolution than many.

So how am I going to choose that one thing from the many? I have no idea. Perhaps I'll choose the most simple resolution to maintain. Then perhaps I'll find some success.

Blessings all!

I do it.. and I fail at almost every resolution on the list, except perhaps one. That one is usually the thing I didn't put much stock in when I wrote it down, but for some reason by the end of the year...it's the only resolution that really mattered.
