kind of, "these are all the things wrong with me and/or my life that I must change next year because I've been such a loser this year and gotten all f'd up ... ( e.g., I weigh too much, I drink too much, I don't do this or that right, or I do too much of that )".
so ... for all of you who still have a need for resolutions for yourselves, I have some for you: be kinder to yourself in 2010...dream more...give yourself more attagirls...let go of your regrets...ask yourself how can I versus telling yourself why you shouldn't...stick your tongue out at your fears or better yet, give them a hug (I discovered once I get really cozy with my fears, they really just aren't that scary ... ) ...dream even a little more, I know but its worth repeating (you'll be shocked at what dreaming can lead to ... !!) oh, and here's one ... stop being such a grown-up ALL the time! be silly! try smiling more (I do this even when I'm cranky...its funny how hard it is to stay cranky when your mouth is smiling!)
just love yourselves you beautiful, loveable people! more love never hurt anyone ...

I like this post and my resolution is to adopt your resolution.
Hear hear. Good suggestions, going easy on ourselves into the New Year!
i particularly like your observation that hugging fears works, and cozying up to them actually makes one realize they are bearable. i resolve to make life sweeter in the coming year, and that will be a good addition! my very best wishes to you for a happy, healthy, and prosperous new year.
Attagirls? What's my gender, chopped liver?
I resolve to change nothing. Now that's easy!
heh heh, fellows can give attagirls too ya knowz. and I prefer to think of y'all as foie gras...paté...etc.
