I've never been good at resolutions, new year or otherwise. I think, perhaps, I like change to be gradual. To ease myself into new situations, new ways of doing things, to ease myself out of things, habits, frames of mind. Abrupt changes disturb my equilibrium, leaves me looking for something familiar to grasp. It's not pretty.
So this new year, despite some gentle nudging from above, I didn't make a list of things to do or a list of things to stop doing. I took a deep breath and hoped. Hoped for some good things - for me, for the people I care about, for the planet (I know, I know, bloody hippy). Mostly I hoped for good things. Kept it vague, tried to keep it positive.
This year, for sure.
