New Years Resolutions

"Finally, brethren, what ever things are true,
Whatever things are honest,
Whatever things are just,
Whatever things are pure,
Whatever things are lovely,
Whatever things are of good report:
If there be virtue, and if there be any praise,
Think on these things."
Paul speaks through the ages
With his guide to New Year's resolutions.
In 2012,
I will search for truth,
Focus on being honest not only to others
But to myself.
I will support justice
For the least of these brothers of mine.
I will strive to not be harsh or rough
With those around me
And affirm their hopes and dreams.
I will
Focus on the beauty within,
Fill my mind with hope,
Shun that which diminishes others,
Strive to see the good in all.
This election year
I want to see
God's image in everyone.
