Robert Paul Reyes: My New Year’s Resolutions

Renew my determination to abide by my minimalist credo: Less things, less entanglements.


Pay it forward when I’m the recipient of an unexpected blessing. 

Make a determined effort to love people as much as I love animals. 

Don’t sweat the small stuff, and remember it’s all small stuff. 

Volunteer !

Have a tough skin, and a gentle touch.

Forgive!

Appreciate the simple pleasures like my daily nap with my cat Tico, and my daily walk with my pooch Mandy.

When a song on the radio takes me back to a simpler and happier time in my life, don’t hesitate to lose myself in the moment. 

Write something, anything, every day!
