I know. I'm lazy. But I made myself a New Years resolution that I would write myself something really special. Which means I have 'til December right?

If you asked me for my New Year Resolution it would be to find out who I am.

I have no way of knowing how people really feel but the vast majority of those I meet couldn't be nicer. Every once in a while someone barks at me. My New Year's resolution is not to bark back.

Let our New Year's resolution be this: we will be there for one another as fellow members of humanity in the finest sense of the word.

In no direction that we turn do we find ease or comfort. If we are honest and if we have the will to win we find only danger hard work and iron resolution.

It may almost be a question whether such wisdom as many of us have in our mature years has not come from the dying out of the power of temptation rather than as the results of thought and resolution.

But do I think that our actions in anyway violate the War Powers Resolution the answer is no.

There comes a time when deceit and defiance must be seen for what they are. At that point a gathering danger must be directly confronted. At that point we must show that beyond our resolutions is actual resolve.

New Year's Resolution: To tolerate fools more gladly provided this does not encourage them to take up more of my time.

Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any other.
