2007
It's here - the new year, number 2007 (as our calendar counts it, anyway). Sadly, it's not a prime number as someone suggested, but it's nice visually anyway.
My daughter asked me if I make new year's resolutions. I have, some years, and haven't, far more often. I like the idea of taking stock on a regular basis but resolutions have that slightfly unpleasant sense of "have to" that reading Silas Marner had, many years ago. Setting goals for the year sounds more appealing. At least three, I think. One that's almost certainly achievable, one that's a bit hard and one that's unlikely but worth reaching for. Now to sit and think, and choose three.
How about you? Do you set them, like them, keep them??
