Resolution

by Chris Sorrenti


no New Year’s promises
this year...from now on
moderation
obviously the secret
to life itself
offering no guarantees
rather
continuance in perfecting
the art
of muddling through
for me
the ultimate
resolution

A practical approach and surely less disappointing than that long, long list. Thanks, Chris. "perfecting the art of muddling through" - my favorite lines here.

I never make New Year's Resolutions. Never have. It's a good thing. No promises to break to myself. I just do what I can to move forward and keep growing, all in moderation. I totally relate.

Sounds like a pretty good philosophy to me....
