One Man's Humble Quest...
I've really wanted to do a better job of documenting my thoughts for future musing and pondering but looking at my track record I've been more than neglectful. New Year's Resolutions are trite and yet one of the ways to improve myself is to journal more. My inner monologue needs to get out. Even if to languish in a journal that is rarely utilized or accessed by others. I owe it to myself. This last year has been stressful. The end of the year in particular, was met with resounding disappointment. And even though the new year has had postponements and cancellations of plans, I'm remaining optimistic that things will improve in all aspects of my life. I wrote my wife, Megan, a letter detailing my resolutions in the form of my self-improvements to alleviate her stress and improve our life. I really feel that this is the best way to try and make such adjustments. I know I have things to work on but I also know that I am incredibly lazy and complacent. Not that I need a reminder of why I should be better to those around me but it serves as a reinforced purpose to make it directed to others. For example, my health. I hate to work out and I love to eat out. They kinda go hand and hand as to the development of my odd proportions. I just need to kick myself into gear about being diligent in my health care so I can be the provider and husband that I want to be. Sure, I still have the ailments of a septuagenarian but I can be active in my health care to ensure that my life span is not the same as that age group.
