I love to make New Year's Resolutions, although I must enjoy disappointment because for whatever reason my NYRs have been sort of the same for like the past 20 years. Oh well. Someday I am going to really master at least one of my goals. This just may be the year!
I decided that my overall "theme" for 2011 is going to be... What Matters Most. I am as busy as I have ever been, and I just don't have the luxury to spend time on things that just don't matter very much in the grand scheme of things. I may need to shelf some ideas and projects that I'd really love to do this year, simply because if I spend too much time on those less-important things, I'll be neglecting things that I know matter more. I am a firm believer in everything having a time and season. This is a season of focusing on the essential and fundamental physical and spiritual needs of myself and my sweet family. That is what matters most to me right now.
One of the things on my short list of what qualifies as "mattering most" to me is recording some of the events of my family, and blogging is a fun and convenient way to accomplish that goal. I know that the frequency of my blog posts during the past few years has been abysmal. I used to blog with some measure of regularity. I know I can do that again, because it matters to me.
Oh, and these are a few more of the things that matter to me:
Here's to accomplishing those things that matter most to you in the coming year!
