New Years Resolutions

New Years Resolutions always seem to be about doing more, going faster, being better.

I think for me they need to be about going slower and deeper ­–­ to settle more deeply into myself, and into my stories. There’s something that happens there… and I want to know more about it.

I think that means more meditating and walking and yoga, reading the books that pull me deep, and listening to the right music. But none of these belong on my resolution list, because then it’s suddenly about doing more again. I need to let it be about going deeper, and simply remember that these things help me get there.
