The New Year!

Well it's that time again, when people everywhere start making New Year resolutions like I need to lose ten pounds, I want to start jogging, I am going to save more money this year by being frugal, or I will spend less time in front of the television.

I always wonder why people make New Years resolutions, I'm not against them I have made them myself ( and if they lasted it was for about two weeks) it just seems so futile. If you did not want to or were not trying to do what ever your resolution was before the New Year why do you think that now after the New Year you will have the resolve or will power to do it. I have always wondered is it that new sense of 'it's a whole New Year anything is possible' or 'Oh no, I just let a whole year slip by me, I've got to make this one better somehow'.

I know when I make resolutions, it's a little of both, the sadness of closing the door on the old year and that small bubble of hope that this year will be better.
So what is my New Year's resolution, it simple and easy smile more.
