I hereby resolve:
to not take myself so seriously.
to not win arguments
to love the people nobody seems to be loving
to connect on a deeper level with my friends
to be honest in my conversations
to treat myself like Jesus treats me
to leave people alone when they want to be left alone
to not fix my family
to laugh more
to dream more
to give more
to treasure sleep
to weep without shame
to rest when I’m tired
to celebrate the accomplishments of others
to live wholeheartedly
to never judge
to always love
to be present
to be available
to put people above agendas
to live in a perpetual state of gratitude
In other words, this year, I’ll try to go to Heaven.
If I do all this I won’t have to wait until I die to get there.
