I haven’t begun my list of New Year’s resolutions, but I think one of them needs to be something about maintaining my peace and calm even when I feel like strangling someone. Maybe I need to take up yoga-- I never liked it much because it’s just too darn s l o w, but maybe it would help. Meditation is hard for me because my mind is constantly racin, though I have gotten better at “going to my happy place” then I used to be. Drugs are not an option-- yet. Alcohol is a possibility, but peace and calm requires daily maintenance and I fear for my liver should I use alcohol to maintain such things. There is always chocolate, right?
