Hello New Year

by Adam Zack — December 20, 2023

Make 2024 a year to tell your loved ones how much you love and appreciate them.

It’s the time of year for those New Year’s resolutions. Lose weight, exercise more, drink less, call mom more often, etc, etc. I was thinking about it because someone asked me what my New Year’s resolutions are going to be. The more I thought about it, the more I decided that instead of resolving to do something, I should instead reflect on what I did right, what I did wrong, and what I learned in 2023. I think about personal relationships, work associations, personal health and happiness and family ties. What did I accomplish that made others (and me in turn) happy and fulfilled? Resolve to keep doing them. What did I do that I regret? Resolve not to do them again. What should I have done differently? Do it differently. For me, 2023 flew by. It had many, many high points which I felt blessed and thankful for. As I get into the “old man” category in 2024, I appreciate and cherish long term relationships and friendships more than ever. I was reminded just this week how fragile life can be when I lost a dear friend and co-worker of over 45 years to a sudden accident. Sunday she was here, Monday she was gone. Make 2024 a year to tell your loved ones how much you love and appreciate them. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
