New Year's Resolutions in Resolution

Ah yes, the new year has chimed in.
Not only has it brought hope for this coming year but 
also its shadow of guilt.  
That is why I am reluctant to make any concrete resolutions. 
 I have never stuck to any of them.   

I shan't think that this year is the exception.
I usually start and stop things according to my own rhythm.  Although having said that, this year is one of the rare times where the new year coincides with the new moon which makes it a good time to make a new start.


New year's resolutions are as standard and prescriptive as the wishes of a beauty pageant contestant.
(Even the parachute ride bit.)

Well maybe not quite so incomprehensible.

I probably won't do yoga five times a week. 
I probably won't go to the farmer's market and whip up breakfast, lunch, and dinners from scratch.  I probably won't drink 2.5 litres of distilled spring water powered by full moon charged crystals daily.  
I probably won't double cleanse my face morning and night with standing appointments at the hairdressers every 6 weeks.
