absolute solution to the resolution

I never do the resolution thing. It bothers me. You start a year with a promise you are dying to keep and by the end of the first month (give or take February), you are at it again. Doing your old rituals even though you've 'crossed-your heart' and 'promised' that you won't. The irony of life.

That's it has never crossed in my mind to make a resolution this year. I always (take those kindergarten times out) have never been into it.

First, I never believe in big promises. You know when you're a kid and your dad promises you that you'll have candy when you'd be good in class? I always fell for that stint and countless of times I end up being the little saint with no Snickers on his hand. I learned my lesson and this I think applies to the recent context.

Second, I know that I can't keep up with promises. I'm a big liar and keeping up with sappy holistic things in this bitter life is hard for me. So better shut up and don't hurt anyone else. Never promise when you know you can't keep it. You'll be like those TraPos who babble everything under the sun in their speeches.

So what is my solution?

Be myself this year. Simple and definitely easy to do.
