Resolutions: A Reflection on Life Cycles
January is the time when we all gleefully lie to ourselves about the people that we are definitely going to become for the next twelve months, completely forgetting the people we've been for the last [insert number of years you've been alive here]. It's part of this annual ritual called New Year's Resolutions. A few years ago I became one of those snobby people that declared that their New Year's Resolution was to resolve not to make a New Year's Resolution. However, I've since come to believe that there's a certain level of necessary reflection that should take place every once in a while, and January is as good a time as any to do it.
