Use Your Words like Your life Depended on them

I am already who I am

Most years, I write resolutions for the up coming year. This year I decided to make spiritual resolutions instead of the usual lose weight, exercise more, travel, save money, etc. But each time I sat down to write, my task seemed too difficult. How can making spiritual resolutions be so complicated?

I thought about it for sometime before I resolved at the end of the day to be who I am, which is…
Calm,
Mindful,
Energetic,
Cheerful,
Listening carefully,
Present,
Compassionate,
Helpful,
Kind,
Resourceful,
Tender,
Loving,
Giving,
Special,
Funny,
Beautiful.

…and to remain true to myself through daily mediation. I am all these things, but not all the time. Therefore, my resolution is to simply be the best person I know I am.
