Happy New Year

I am really not big on New Year's Resolutions. I tend to make a lot of them and break them as soon as the new year comes in. That's not really a good way to start the year. This year, I'm doing something different. I'm making a list of things I have to learn. That way, I'll be inspired to complete the list. Nobody says no to more knowledge.

Here's my list:

1. Learn how to say "I'm wrong" without any justifications.
2. Learn how to say "I'm sorry" without following it up with a "but..."
3. Learn how to take care of myself. A healthy mom is a good mom.
4. Learn how to forgive.
5. Appreciate being forgiven.
6. Learn that saying "I quit" doesn't mean I'm a loser. It simply means that I know what my limitations are.
7. Believe in the statement "I can do this!"
8. Learn that we should not be emotional on petty things - I need the emotions for something bigger like my daughter's quincenera or debut.
9. Learn how to cook better food. (The Department of Health says that carcinogens are not good for the body.)
10. Learn to be a better person.
