I have just completed my New Year Resolution to complete my sons Rubik’s Cube
With immense pride and a feeling of self satisfaction, I am proud to announce that I have completed my New Years resolution to complete the Rubik’s cube that my son received for Christmas.
My family are duly impressed with my momentous achievement and I can now relax for the rest of 2010.
And yes I am somewhat bored.
I came across this headline from Catholic Online on New Years eve:-
New Years Eve is a great existential moment, ripe with expectations. It invites a spiritually cathartic reflection and offers hope.
Gosh does it? I’m certainly missing something. I liked this bit though:-
GK Chesterton wrote: “The object of a New Year is not that we should have a new year. It is that we should have a new soul and a new nose; new feet, a new backbone, new ears, and new eyes. Unless a particular man made New Year resolutions, he would make no resolutions. Unless a man starts afresh about things, he will certainly do nothing effective. Unless a man starts on the strange assumption that he has never existed before, it is quite certain that he will never exist afterwards. Unless a man be born again, he shall by no means enter into the Kingdom of Heaven.”
