My new year’s resolution is to try and be a better person to others. I feel like I could do better when I interact with other people. It would also make me feel better knowing that I’m being nicer to people.

My new year’s resolutions are to go to church every Sunday and become a better person. Going to church is one of the most important things in life and I just want to make sure that’s my first priority. I would also like to become a better person, because I do some things I shouldn’t.

Do you ever notice these little flaws about yourself that most people probably don’t notice? I know I do! I can think of so many ways to better myself, but my worst quality is most likely my temper. This year I’m going to get my temper under control. Right now I get angry quickly, but a year from now things will be different.
