Tomorrow is New Year’s Day, the most popular day for making resolutions, so I planned to write a long post about new year’s resolutions – how to make them, how to keep them, and why bother.
About how to eat better, to exercise more, to nag less, to have more fun, to have closer friendships, to sing in the morning to your children.
But I just got back from a funeral.
All I can think is – one day, that phone is going to ring. For you, for me, for someone we love.

Dear readers, NOW is the time to keep the resolutions that will make us ready; the phone is going to ring.
