At this time of year (or before), many of us contemplate, sign-up for, and commit to various New Years resolutions. It's our thing. That said, and in recognition of the unbelievably abysmal, depressing, tedious, egregious, vexing, frustrating, grinding, knackered, messed-up, no-good, odious, perplexing, ravaging, worrisome, just-get-me-the-heck-out-of-the-year-2008 that it was ... it's easy to see why we all want to focus on positive resolutions (as if anyone would sign up for negative ones; but you never know).
Be that as it may, before we go setting overachieving, unbelievably optimistic expectations that include words like terrific, fantastic, incredible, extraordinary, stupendous, phenomenal, super-duper, and all those other type of high-flooting adjectives and expressions (though I do like "that's the cats pajamas" one) - lets keep it real; keep it manageable, and most of all, achievable. That said, a word that that fits nicely given past issues, present dynamics, and future uncertainties, is the word (drum roll please): good. In fact, good is great.
So here's to good health, good friends, good family, good work, good jobs, good politics, good spirituality, good faith, good love, good hugs, good peace, for good living.
Good is Good.
