A new oath holds pretty well;
but... when it is become old,
and frayed out,
and damaged by a dozen annual retryings of its remains,
it ceases to be serviceable;
any little strain will snap it.
But can one still make resolutions
when one is over forty?
I live according to twenty*year*old habits.

*****************************************************************
A happy New Year! Grant that I
May bring no tear to any eye
When this New Year in time shall end
Let it be said I've played the friend,
Have lived and loved and labored here,
And made of it a happy year.
*****************************************************************
I do think New Year's resolutions can't
technically be expected to begin on New Year's Day, don't you?
Since, because it's an extension of New Year's Eve,
smokers are already on a smoking roll and
cannot be expected to stop abruptly on the stroke of midnight
with so much nicotine in the system.
Also dieting on New Year's Day isn't a good idea as you
can't eat rationally but really need to be free to consume whatever is necessary,
moment by moment, in order to ease your hangover.
I think it would be much more sensible if resolutions began generally on January the second.
*****************************************************************
New Year's Eve, where auld acquaintance be forgot.
Unless, of course, those tests come back positive.
We meet today
To thank Thee for the era done,
And Thee for the opening one.
*****************************************************************
One resolution I have made, and try always to keep, is this:
To rise above the little things.
Of all sound of all bells...
most solemn and touching is the peal which rings out the Old Year.
It wouldn't be New Year's if I didn't have regrets.
*****************************************************************
A happy New Year! Grant that I
May bring no tear to any eye
When this New Year in time shall end
Let it be said I've played the friend,
Have lived and loved and labored here,
And made of it a happy year.
*****************************************************************
We spend January 1 walking through our lives,
room by room, drawing up a list of work to be done,
cracks to be patched.
Maybe this year, to balance the list,
we ought to walk through the rooms of our lives...
not looking for flaws, but for potential.
*****************************************************************
May all your troubles last as long as your New Year's resolutions.
He who breaks a resolution is a weakling;
He who makes one is a fool
but... when it is become old,
and frayed out,
and damaged by a dozen annual retryings of its remains,
it ceases to be serviceable;
any little strain will snap it.
But can one still make resolutions
