resolute.
I wish more people were truly resolute.
People hear the phrase "New Years Resolution" and it now means something you follow for three weeks and then forget about... what about that is resolute? Absolutely nothing.
Yet the idea behind them is beautiful and intriguing. People desire to use the start of a new year to bring about the start of a new beginning for themselves - the beginning of something exciting, something that betters themselves and the world around them, something that stretches them and changes them and brings them to become the person they desire to be. I think that's wonderful.
So while I won't be making any official resolutions, I will be resolute in my desire and pursuit of change. I read Romans 12 yesterday. I want to be a Romans 12 woman. That is my "resolution". This is in no way anything that will be accomplished in the space of 2011... but I'll get there eventually. But I'm going to begin to become... now.
