Another year has started, but do we all really grow a "year wiser"?
Many of us begin a new year with a clean slate. We proclaim our New Year's Resolution and vow to achieve the mighty goal we set. For instance, there was a very noticeable increase in the population of Gold's Gym on January 2nd. Will the surge become the norm? I'll let you know.
Have I grown a year wiser since the beginning of 2007? Posts from my other blog are focused on baseball, celeb gossip, and my career. Not much has changed. But am I wiser? Health-wise, I say, "yes." I lost 15 lbs. during the Summer of 2007. This was achieved the "smart way," a.k.a. diet and exercise. Aside from that, my wisdom hasn't leaped to yearly proportions.
However, I do see a change for 2008. If we do not seek wisdom, we will not gain any. Walking on a comfortable path will not provide us with a memorable journey. I hate resolutions, but I believe that I am taking steps toward something unfamiliar, yet fulfilling.
Will this make me a year wiser once the fireworks go off on Jan,1, 2009? I'll let you know.Labels: 2008, resolutions |
