This is the time that we all make our regular annual good resolutions. For day after tomorrow everybody will have smoked their last cigarette, took their last drink, said their last cuss word and will have sworn another broken oath. For many, a New Year’s resolution is something that goes in one year and out the other. An optimist will stay up until midnight to see the new year in. A pessimist will stay up to make sure the old year leaves. Many look forward to the new year for a new start to old habits.
But along with Benjamin Franklin, I say: Be always at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let each new year find you a better person. Happy New Year everyone! May the coming of 2012 bring you closer to Christ, more committed to your family, more compassionate and tolerant of others, and provide you opportunity to succeed in all your endeavors, as we all seek to get our priorities in order.
Love you,
Bren
