What is it about the turning over of one number on a calendar that makes us want to review our life of the year before and make “resolutions” to either improve our life or change something to make it better?
I don’t make New Years resolutions. Even so, I find myself thinking things like, “This year I will come to my WordPress Blog and I will post more often, I will make an effort to visit other blogs, be more present.”
Sounds like a resolution to me. The thing is, it shouldn’t take moving into a new year to get me up and running again on the blog. And I know perfectly well that no matter how much I may intend to do something, such as write more often, any good intentions are just a breeze passing by. Until and unless I put it into action, it doesn’t count.
So, no resolutions for me. I am at peace, my life is blessedly uneventful, and I like it that way. Still, I do get the occasional urge to write, to be creative, perhaps look for some writing challenges on here, or call up a few random memories to write about. So when that happens I will write. But I won’t force it.
I hope the changes here at WordPress don’t make things too difficult. Last time I wrote I could still find their old layout for creating posts – now everything is new to me. It looks fairly intuitive, so I imagine I will get used to it.
I may have to change my layout though. The text on here is too small for me, though that may be because I have a new laptop with a slightly higher resolution. The old one bit the dust, thanks to a stupid decision on my part. It was working fine, just getting a bit sluggish, so I decided to reformat it and re-install Windows 7. Bad decision!
But is it? That bad decision got me a new laptop, after all. It’s all in how you look at it.
Everything is a matter of perspective. And that pretty much sums up my life. So if there is one wish I have for others for this new year, it is this:
May your eyes be open and your heart willing to perceive good in all matters that move you along your path.
Happy 2016 to all who pass by.

Happy New Year, Judee! Making no resolutions is a great resolution. LOL. Couldn’t resist. I do the same resolution each year. The only one kind that I can keep. đŸ™‚
