I played trivia with some people a few weeks back and realized how behind I was with current events. It was embarrassing how few political world leaders I was able to name. I used to be great about checking the news, but life is busy, and sometimes I just don't have the time these days.
Yet... I have time to check Facebook and learn the happenings of people's lives that I don't really care about.
The truth is, we have time for the things we make time for. So I made a mid-June resolution to start keeping up with the news again. It wasn't a special day with significant reasoning behind it. I just realized that it was time to change what I was unhappy with, and mid-June was as good a time as ever.
It is seldom a perfect time to make a change; we can always come up with a thousand reasons not to do something. But I've found that it is very often a good time to make a change. So, do it! Make an early-July resolution, no matter how big or small it may be. You don't have to wait until January 1st. After all, if I had put off my resolution until the new year, I never would have discovered my obsession with the Russian spy ring.

You're inspirational. I will now become obsessed with the Russian Spy Ring. Can't wait to have you over next week! Any food requests??
ReplyDeleteIt's worth obsessing about. I'm excited too! Anything is great...I'm not picky (as long as it's not meatloaf... I hate meatloaf).
