No great thing is created suddenly, any more than a bunch of grapes or a fig. If you tell me that you desire a fig, I answer you that there must be time. Let it first blossom, then bear fruit, then ripen.Epictetus (c. 50 - 120)Source: The Enchiridion

Not all revolutionaries set out to change the world per se; some set out to change their own worlds. And in so doing, they often change the way one person, or a few people, or whole communities, or entire nations or the world thinks and operates in some significant way. —Anita Roddick
Resolution Bandwagon

Happy New Year! 2009 was wonderful to me and I’m so grateful for every person that crossed my path and everything that happened. 2010 promises to be just as amazing, and then some! To make sure I live it up I’ve decided to jump on the resolution bandwagon. (I know, a bandwagon, that’s so unlike me! But if anyone wishes to send me a pair of Vibram Five Fingers I will gladly accept and run in them. Thank you. J) Below is a rather extensive list of my resolutions. Wish me luck!
I Resolve To:
Be Positive!
Know that everything will work out, always.
Be compassionate.
Connect with as many people as I can.
Give.
Publish!
Join a writer’s workshop. (If you know of any in the Austin area let me know!)
Do something I’m good at everyday.
Do something I love everyday.
Celebrate my successes.
Learn something new everyday.
Continue to move outside of my comfort zone.
Whatever your resolutions may be for the upcoming year I wish you the best of luck at fulfilling them. Have a wonderful new year!

Everyday, think as you wake up, today I am fortunate to be alive, I have a precious human life, I am not going to waste it. I am going to use all my energies to develop myself, to expand my heart out to others; to achieve enlightenment for the benefit of all beings. I am going to have kind thoughts towards others, I am not going to get angry or think badly about others. I am going to benefit others as much as I can.
--Dalai Lama XIV
