Resolve

I'm usually not too big on New Year's Resolutions. After all, most of the people across the world resolve to change their lives in a given year, yet 365 days later, they don't even remember what they planned to change. I don't want to change too much, but there are some things I want to work on. However, they all revolve around one simple idea: Making more time for myself in 2011.

I am busy. I work a full-time job as a public school teacher, teach in an adjunct position at a local technical school, teach homebound students after school, and am working towards my Master's (taking three classes this coming semester). It goes without saying that there are a lot of "me things" that get pushed aside in an effort to maintain all the other things I have going on.

This year, I plan to take some time for myself and really enjoy the year. I want to devote time to spiritual growth, and I want to be more organized. All of this will help me greatly. Let's hope I can stick with it.
