Need inspiration for a few {doable} New Year's resolutions?

✏️From the January 1 1943 journal of Woody Guthrie [folk singer: This Land is Your Land, Talking Dust Bowl Blues, Which Side Are You On?, Hobo's Lullaby]:

     learn people better

     change socks

            stay glad

Some good ones.

I'll take #33: Wake up and fight.

Looks like a good simple set of rules to live by.

Long ago a BBF shared that her goal, for ever and ever, was just not be an &&&&&&&.  I have shared that with the grands.  Seems to cover so much ground, driving - siblings - team sports - classmates.  And most recently, cheating at poker.

@cheriere   Pass it on.

I share with my university students every year (and play some of Woodie's songs . . .

On the lighter side, wash teeth if any (#3).

Very interesting resolutions 🥳

Woodie's journal from the 1940's has a touch of billiance—embedded in simplicity.

I shall resolve to start a journal, with pencil.

Adding illustrations with whimsy.

Simple observations. Few words.

LOVE this!

Many thanks and Happy New Year!
