Resolution-less

Resolution-less

Really what is the point of making a resolution? Most of us are not resolute in anything we say we are going to do. We are a nation of slackers, malcontents and then scratch our heads or more correctly our bloating stomachs or widening sitting muscles and wonder why is it that the rest of the world is passing us by and leaving our high school shenanigans and policies behind.

So if you are reading this why not dash over to the dictionary. You know that dusty book of words under the leg of your table keeping it balanced. Yeah get about a half dozen of your cosmos or gamer guides and replace them for the dictionary and look up resolute. I’ll wait.

I’m trying not to swear as much, not that I don’t think “swears” have there place in our language I believe that they do, however like the green wax isn’t currently acceptable. Am I resolute in this no because I don’t believe that the stick wearing up tight people are correct about certain words self censoring to please others – which I hate myself for but it allows me to keep things I do like. Sell out …perhaps … pragmatic is more to the point. But really my point is that while many of you may be contemplating your failure to keep your resolutions made all of a week ago, most likely in the haste of a drunken stupor … don’t feel so badly you weren’t all that resolute about the change anyway because if you were, your starting point wouldn’t have been January 1 following a night of binge drinking it would have been the first time you told yourself that what you were doing was a problem

I’ve been resolute in one resolution thus far. Not to make resolutions any more. I’ve been resolute in that now for well over 10 years.
