New Year's Resolutions
I can see new hope inside of me
The Savior's love surrounds me
Praises be through all eternity
For love and grace so abounding
- Majestic Praise*
As I travel around blog-land I see a lot of people writing and/or inquiring about New Year's resolutions. I've never really set any resolutions at the end of the year - not that there's anything wrong with that. Maybe it's because I set and re-evaluate my personal goals whenever I feel it necessary. As the year closes I like to reflect back on how it went and I pray that in the coming year I will grow in all aspects of my life - relationships (agape & philios), wisdom & understanding, spirituality & faith, strength & courage, discernment, just to name a few. Today, in one of my online groups, a member (ablkbrotha) posted the following questions. I thought they were good end of year/new year reflections and I'd like to see what y'all are thinking...
1. What one word describes who you were to someone else in 2005? Example: someone may see you as loving, or faithful or as a friend or as trifling!
2. Describe what was the funniest experience you had in 2005.
3. Describe the best kiss you were given in 2005.
4. Describe the greatest sexual encounter you had in 2005. Provide specific details.
5. Share one of your biggest accomplishments of 2005.
6. List your greatest flirtatious action(s) in 2005.
7. Describe an instance when you let your guard down in 2005 and were disappointed.
8. List one of your biggest mistakes in 2005.
9. What was your greatest lesson learned in 2005?
10. Based upon your 2005 experiences, what one word would you like to use describe yourself in 2006?
