Resolution (next day repost)

The past year done…

offer thanksgiving

for grace and blessing.

“Gratitude implies

appreciation;

insists on realization” [1]

Resolve anew…

breathe life into the soul

and be holy whole.

Respond anew…

answer the should

and be a power for good

“Thanks works throughout

our practice…

and make us forget us”[2]

Restate anew…

nurture zealous youth

and serve the Truth

Redo anew…

make self-sacrifice

and loving care suffice

“… trust in God

whose providence enhance

every blade of grass”[3]

In the movie "Harvey", Elwood P Dowd, played by Jimmy Stewart, explains coping with the world this way: "Years ago my mother used to say to me, she'd say, 'In this world, Elwood, you must be' - she always called me Elwood - 'In this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant.' Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. You may quote me." Well, for years I was smart, oh so very smart, I too recommend pleasant - Trust the harmony
