Isn't it funny how every year we fool ourselves into believing we are going to make achievable New Years resolutions, and by the end of January, we couldn't be more off track?! We always say "This year will be different, this year I'm really going to stick to the plan" but the truth is, we never do. We never even come close.
I'm beginning to think it's actually a good thing. Can you imagine if we DID stick to every goal every year and we had no hiccups, no small cheats, no problems carrying out the intended objective? By the age of 30, we may all just be perfect. How boring and predictable our lives would be. The average greeting would turn into "How are you today?" to which we would respond "Perfect thank you!" and truly mean it. I like to believe (whether it be true or not) that people like me for my faults as well. That perhaps my so-called negative qualities are actually my valuable assets.
I intend to feel good at the end of the year when I have broken every aim I was reaching for. Because I think those bad things make me who I am (that being extremely, irrationally over sensitive and over-analysing). However, I like who I am. There is no epidemic in my body due to a shortage of tears. It's a never ending supply for whenever I need it.
So I don't think breaking the rules in this regard is a bad thing. Resolutions are meant to be broken, so that we can grow into ourselves, all in good time.
You can go grab that chocolate bar now.
