A Possible New Year’s Resolution

Lose weight, floss more, be kinder…

All solid self-improvements we can make.

One we rarely seem to work on is: acceptance.

Life happens to us, and a lot of the time, it sucks.

The Rolling Stones sang, “You can’t always get what you want,” but in reality, it’s “You rarely get what you want… or what you need.”

The forever-longing of wanting more is real. It’s an addiction as powerful as any drug.

The only way to defeat it, is constant effort.

It sucks, but it’s necessary.
