resolution.

my resolution: to stop disliking people for no reason. this includes the people i already dislike for no reason/not a very good reason. it's a nasty habit i've developed and i need to weed out the hate in my life. i think this is a pretty doable start. so, no more will i say, "idk, i just don't like them..." or "it's just something about them" or "well they cut in front of me in line that one time, so now i don't like them." this year, i'm spreading the love.

at first, i hated her even more for making my resolution seem inconsequential now because i really don't hate a lot of people and that list became even smaller when i made this resolution. so it made me wonder if my resolution was for naught if i was that easily swayed to begin hating my inspiration again. but when i thought about it more, i realized that she just made it easier for me to define just where the line i had drawn was. of course, she's still on the hate side; that's not changing anytime soon. but her status changing so quickly does not diminish the rest of the people taken off the hate/hit list and i still feel like a better person because i still have cut a lot of hate out of my life. i guess you really can't like everybody all the time.
