New Year. New Plans.


I've made some goals for myself for 2009.  I've been thinking about it for a few days and I wanted to keep my resolutions simple and healthy.  As far as fitness goes I would like to get stronger.  I think if my muscles were stronger I would be a faster runner w/ less injuries.  But I didn't just want to focus on fitness for my goals.  I thought about it for a long time.  What do I want to be in this new year?  Hmmm.  You know- I always kind of want the same things.  I want to be healthier, holier, and happier.  The Three "H's"!  Easy.  I don't want to make this complicated laundry list of tasks.  (I have enough of those!)  So here is my resolution.  I've made it into a kind of mantra so I can just repeat it to myself throughout my day.

Exercise more. Pray more. Smile more.

Simple.  I can do these 3 things. I believe that they will improve my life and my family's life. 
Oh, I just love new years.  It is a chance to begin again.  To dream big.  Here is to a healthy, holy, and happy 2009!

What a fantastic mantra! I might adopt it... Is it right to steal someone elses mantra? Doesn't seem right... :-)
