Sometimes resolutions fail and yet better things await
Looking back on the year so far
by Sumana Pathak Sharma
How in October did we land?
I thought I’d come far
But from where I stand
The green meadows are still away
I was left enamored by the silent ranches I saw on my way
Rugged, beaten but beautiful paths
I took the roads less traveled
The plan is in tatters
But it doesn’t feel like I betrayed
I only followed my heart
And now, from where I stand
There couldn’t have been a better path
My heart didn’t stray
Oh new year, I look your way
I’ll have a plan
But I’ll throw it to the wayside, If my heart says nay

We like to start the new year with resolutions and goals but the path to these should not be set in stone. Sometimes our heart and gut call for taking a different path than the one we had planned for and may even
lead to a destination we could â??notâ?? have imagined. Yet sometimes it makes sense to forget all the rules and just ride along and chase the butterflies. Like our heart, they know exactly where they are going! Our brain often does not. Our resolutions mainly come from our brain. So, go figure!
