(in)courage post: On Resolutions

A few weeks ago, I pulled my phone out of my purse and was surprised to see a voice mail from Beth, an old colleague and friend. We had worked together for many years, but as our career paths separated, we lost touch.

Whenever she would come to mind, I would think to myself, I need to call Beth. I miss her. But the time never seemed long enough, so I would push the call off.

I listened to her familiar raspy voice in the voice mail and smiled when she said, “My New Year’s Resolution for 2015 is to be a better friend. I am starting with the fiscal year and you are the first call I’m making.”
