Happy New Year! By Margaret Leora Workman; Warponie Art

Do you make New Year resolutions? So many to choose from! This subject causes people to buy journals and name their journal ‘My New Year resolutions’. We use rulers for that name and spend time measuring that label. When we look at it, it reminds us how we already left home, walked through the desert, built a rock formation, built a tent, had a fire near the rock formation, then what? Did you roll up the tent and the fire but then the rock formation was left there? Then another group of people came along (unknown to you) and gathered up those heavy, heavy rocks that you had built for your NY resolution living proof, and built a building far away with those. How many rocks did you have? No matter what, that group of people split those rocks up, either by grinding them up or just placing another to build a random wall. One of the rocks that was ground up into pebbles was thrown onto the dirt so that other people could walk on that rock path to the entrance. Did you label each rock with your initials? Maybe one day you choose to go to this building with these same people. You sit there in a chair and listen and smile to what they want to sell you, which is totally against your New Year resolutions, and then you begin to look at the wall and in the middle is your rock because it has your initials. What will you choose? By Margaret Leora Workman; Warponie Art
