New Year's Resolutions

New Year’s resolutions are destined to fail every time. Basically, what New Year’s resolutions are, are people telling you what they want to change with themselves. Despite them telling you this and that they want to change it, they will spend a day actually attempting to better themselves before going back to their old miserable life. There was one resolution that worked however, or so the legend goes. He was your average New York citizen, rude, obese, and frankly just an awful individual. He went to the pub most nights, coming home late. When New Year’s Eve came, he was changed when he simply uttered the words, “My New Year’s resolution is to get my life together.” He wasn’t serious, of course. He had no plans to follow through, or even think about this resolution again. But on the morning of January first, he looked down at his drink and realized that it wasn’t a beer, it was a fruit smoothie. He was flabbergasted; he had never seen one of those in person before. He dropped it on the floor and he let put a bloodcurdling scream. He ran to the fridge, fearing for the safety of his ice cold beers. They weren’t there when he opened the fridge door however. In their place were protein shakes. Later that day he drove over to the bar or what was once the bar, what it is now is a gym. He couldn’t believe his eyes; his life was being turned around, for the better. As the day went on, he became less rude, he lost weight and he was a genuinely nice guy. They say this man is still alive today, as healthy as can be all because of a simple resolution that he didn’t even plan on following through with. Other than that there are no documented cases of New Year’s resolutions being achieved, this story truly depicts a New Year’s miracle.
