New Year’s Should’a, Would’a, Could’a

As I celebrate a brand new year
‘Thinkin what I should’a been do’in,
The list I’m makin’ looks familiar
Last years, in one week, pillaged, ruined.

Today’s disasters that cause tears
Be tomorrows laughter-tales heard.
Future things that I most fear
May never even occur.

So my list is hopeful & brief.
My wish, to give selfless gifts
Of love, to listen to others need &
To wake up each morn & live.

I wish everyone a happy, healthy New Year, and hereby resolve to:

1. exercise because it feels good not because I should
2. wear more gowns
3. raise money toward a cure AND to help PWP in the here and now
4. smile at my children (and everyone) more frequently, even if it takes effort
5. become my own Muse
6. follow the 5:1 rule of 5 praises to every 1 suggestion and apply it to PD: 5 words of hope, gratitude and optimism for every 1 word of complaint
7. launch project FREEZE! marrying PD activism and art
8. form a PWP circus and invite Laura to meet me at the trapeze!

Well, it's a draft anyway...actual results may vary. Love to all,
Rose

very impressive list! I didn't see this message before i sent you my message.
i particularly like number 7

and th 5:1 is a wonderful aspiration - to reach for - would love to - but for me, I would be excited to achieve a 2:1 with hopes for 3:1
