Resolutions (or, at least, aspirations) for 2012

[anotheranon]

• Eat more salad - met the zen master of all things leafy who gave me some ideas for making roughage tasty. Time to act on them.


• Stretch daily, no matter how time consuming or painful - if I want to look and feel less stiff on the strip, I've gotta.


• Be more generous - don't know how, or with what, but try.


• Be less cynical - the hardest, as I've done a good job of building a crusty shell around myself to compensate for the "kick me" sign I wore for the first 20 years of my life. I'd like to figure out how to let it go when it's not warranted.

How I did on last year's: had regular smoothies through March and am not quite sure why I stopped (or why I didn't eat them like crazy during the August heat wave). Did expose myself to new music, partly through RA and best through NPR's All Songs Considered. Meditation....kinda didn't happen. Maybe I can combine this with stretching this year.
