If you're going to make a New Year's resolution? Make it fun. Make it something you actually want to do. Make it joyous and beautiful. Don't worry about the size of your waist or the number on a scale or your sins or your flaws. Resolve to be kinder to yourself. To try something you're curious about. Find joy in something you used yo love or try something new. Resolve to dance more, sleep more, play more, do more art, eat more great food, love more, live more. Life is short. This year I'm going to keep singing, dancing, poeting, laughing, loving, living AND I'm going to learn to play the bass guitar. Just for the fun of it. What do you WANT to do?
