Omg I had an epiphany. I know what I can write about today. New Year’s resolutions! I’d love a new year revolution, but I’m gonna actually be careful what I wish for because I don’t know what the grass looks like in the other side and it may be worse than just a little brown and unkempt. It could be a nuclear wasteland. Not to get off topic, but I guess that’s why mutually assured destruction (MAD) is a dying theory. We can’t rely on rational deterrence if we end up with irrational actors. I don’t really know what would happen if a country with nuclear weapons fell or if there were a coup. What would the international community do? Is it just something that wouldn’t happen? I mean, it has to eventually. I would be the most ignorant person on this side of the cucumber if I were to suggest the way the world is now is how it will be forever. It’s possible that I am the most ignorant person in the world regardless of that, but whatever! You never know anything for sure. 

So, the new year. I haven’t really given much thought to any possible resolutions. I’m always just nervous things can get worse… maybe I need to make some connections with these posts. Like yesterday saying I feel like what I think becomes reality… I need to try to change the way I think and see what may be happening. You don’t learn very much if you’re not looking for anything. I guess a resolution can be to be more intentional. I feel like I almost try to wade through life apathetically. That’s probably not great. I guess it could be worse… maybe not, to some people.. Anyway! I guess I just want to try to kept up with my goals from this past year that I feel are worthwhile. I don’t remember many, but I know I wanted to walk everyday and try my best to get to 10K steps a day and then of course I came up with the goal to post here everyday for 6 months. I’m over halfway through and I think there’s a very good chance I’ll be able to keep it up. One thing I was wondering before is what will come next? Anything? Maybe I’ll just keep it going? Maybe once a week? Maybe never again? It could go any way. Basically anything can go anyway! How scary… wait, let’s reframe the thoughts, how exciting! Not at all intimidating!  Just gonna try to keep my mind more open and cook more. To try to forget. What about you?
