Resolutions

The year I write my novel.
The year I run a mini-marathon.
The year I pay off my AMEX.
The year I spend less, and save more.
The year I fall in love.
The year I finish all my steps.
The year I find a job where all my talents are appreciated.
The year I listen more, speak less.
The year I go to Cuba.
The year I celebrate my birthday by throwing a party for myself.
The year I keep the same core group of friends.
The year I give more than I take.
The year I learn to accept my path.
The year I let go of the dream
that things would be better,
if only I were a little different.
