My New Year's resolution is to take more pictures. Not sure if it's really a self-improvement resolution, but I think it will do me good next year to have a gallery full of photos to look back on

Honestly I feel like resolutions are always at least implied to be improvements. Even if I said "I'm gonna stop doing dishes in the new year," the assumption is that it'll preserve my mental, somehow

As you know, I’m going with themes for 2024, which is very in line with resolutions as a return to our values. I think a yearly ritual reminding ourselves of what matters to us ought to be here to stay. So mine: Joy. :) And, having us all stand around a peacock and renew vows to chivalry Dec. 31, 2024.

I always find resolutions interesting. I am a fan of them, but I don’t like when people pressure the “requirement” to make a resolution. The tradition is a fun “push” to make a change you’ve wanted for awhile. That being said, I didn’t make one so maybe I’m just giving myself excuses 😉

I think pressure to *keep* a resolution is pointless, but I’d encourage everyone to make one up at least, just to keep the spirit going! (Which is also how I feel about picking favorite movies, but y’all ain’t ready for that one)

I would rather walk barefoot across broken glass than pick a favorite anything. You have to torture that information out of me.

Super valid! Ooooo, I’m ready for this. I’m a firm believer everyone should have a top for all things. Not necessarily a #1, but have like a top 3 favorite bands or top 5 favorite movies.
