...new year 2012

Ralphy here .........to extend a New Year 2012 greeting to all.  Resolutions are traditions when it comes to celebrating the New Year.  I get it.  We look back on our lives and contemplate some of things we would like to improve.  Things like losing weight or quitting smoking are excellent resolutions and should be attempted so success might be achieved.  What about making a resolution to just be a better person?  Being more patient and kinder to others would also be a resolution worth pursuing.  Showing compassion for those in need, being empathetic to the struggles of others and giving your time to people because they need your time would also be a wonderful endeavor to strive for.  Resolutions involving human emotional commitments are worthy goals.  Of course they are not the easiest goals to achieve, but the personal rewards are golden.  Think about it.  Hey,  I am just a "mutt", but my insight to humans is pretty darned good.  Oh, by the way...animal rights and their protection all depends on you.  I love humans, won't you love me?.................
