It seems to me that making a New Year’s resolution is a subtle acknowledgment of failure to live up to some expectation during the past year, and at the same time granting yourself absolution by resolving to “do better” in the coming year. All sins confessed to are forgiven until repeated. Rather than perpetuate this annual cycle of failure and and forgiveness, I hereby resolve to resolve no more. And if that doesn’t work out, there is always 2010.
