Resolution For No Resolution

So much to think about when some one asks you about what are your plans for the new year.Is it about the first day of the new year or the whole of new year, the the inquiring soul wants to know?? I generally get confused with the answer due to this confusion.

Let me start with the former one.What is it that I do on the 1st of Jan??Hmm let me recall..... Huh nothing much different except changing the day of my table clock if by mistake it had stopped,or for that matter changing the table canender's day.Except these changes absolutely nothing different than all other days.
Going out with friends,calling up home asking the whereabouts of father & mother,involving in those small gossips that go around in office premise about a new joinee or about a manager who does not know the T of technology or for that matter doing the mundane jobs those I do which I call my job or profession.
Sometimes I also wonder why people make so much fuss about the first day of every year.Except the increase in glossy advertisements those force you to spend your money & except a summary of the year that went by (which has become so common in all the media) nothing changes at all.I see the same news year after year.I get the same feeling that some people will prosper at the cost of others.I get the same false promises that life will be better all across the globe by people who are the prominent faces in the world politics.

But it is about the second option that I wonder sometime if I have an in depth analysis.For the whole year I do make a lot of plans which people generally say new year resolutions.Hmmmm, let me start thinking if I remember any one of them having been fullfilled.ten , three, ok leave it, may be one which I have fullfilled.
Scratching the back of my head I have got one which I have been able to fullfill & that is not making any plans & living life as it comes along.It is so easy to keep that I don't feel guilty enough at the end of each year that I did not kepp any new year resolutions.No headache of comparing the outcome with the intended one,no worry about the possibility of the occurrance of the event.Just enjoying the way life moves on.

They say you have to do what you do best & you have to make promises which you can keep.I feel I have got this one for me.Don't have any resolution for a new year. Just chill out & enjoy the sense of being alive.There is so much to see & hear & say.So why to narrow down to a small lane of resolutions those confine you to a small prison of plans,thoughts,actions while making you miss the vast canvas of life.
