I made a resolution
to keep the whole year through.
I wrote it down but lost it,
now I don’t know what to do.
I’ve searched but cannot find it,
no matter how I strive.
Oh well, I’ll make another one
in twenty-twenty-five.

The Evolution of the Resolution by Jacinta Lou
Leave a commentIt’s a new year and I’m supposed to make a resolution.
A promise to myself to do better –
to continue my evolution.
Eat less sugar.
Do my homework on time.
Less screen time –
no I don’t think I’ll promise that.
But then I heard people say, new year’s resolutions only last a few weeks.
A month at best!
So I’m going to start a revolution and do away with new year’s resolutions.
Unless it’s eating more chocolate.
And more screen time.
And maybe more books.
Happy New Year!
