THINK on THESE THINGS’
By Joyce Sequichie Hifler
A new galaxy of shining promises made to oneself are resolutions made with the utmost faith that self is listening and will carry out the plans.
But self is as unpredictable as a child playing in the street; it may dart in any direction, according to the mood and to whatever catches its attention. At the first sign of a challenge, self may race back and lean hard upon the old ways of doing things, no matter how wrong it may be. Resolutions do very little to change a way of living. They are easily made and easily forgotten. They may be a sincere desire to keep a resolution, but if self has not changed inwardly, little depend on the outward change.
It is said that we promise according to our hopes and perform according to our selfishness. Failure to keep our promises to others is a disappointment, but failure within oneself is a disaster.
A little performance is worth a host of promises on any day that starts a new year.
