In all the busyness of this time of year have you managed to set time aside to draft out a few New Year’s resolutions?
Maybe you’ll get some time over the next couple of days. I’m hoping to find time to think about what the brand new year might bring.
While many people don’t believe in making resolutions I reckon that any time that we can sit down and take stock of our lives and make plans for the time ahead is time well spent.
As with every year I’m sure that many will set all the usual resolutions about losing weight, getting fitter, quitting smoking, reducing debt, increasing income and all the rest but I wonder what 2014 would look like if we made resolutions and goals about improving relationships with those close to us and then asked those people, or others, for help in staying accountable to those goals.
I wonder how things would be if we made resolutions about helping those we may not even know but who need a hand up. What if we made 2014 the year that we would seek to more fully understand the deep needs of others and then partner with them in a way that would move us all a little closer to what we were designed to become?
How would 2014 shape up if we determined that family was more important than the demands of work and then structured our schedules accordingly?
What would it be like if we decided that 2014 was the year that we would look beyond the physical and material things of this world to discover deeper spiritual meaning?
I wonder.
