New year's/ Life resolution

[hurtjonnegut]

I believe the only resolution I have kept was doing stand up in 2004. I started writing right after the first, and I haven't stopped. I don't think I day has gone by that I haven't. I went up on stage on February 26th, and I've continued to do so regularly since. I'd like to make a similar resolution this year. Something that will make an

Brilliant entry, Jon. This is an excellent idea (and not in the least depressing) and I hope you keep to it. In fact, perhaps I ought to try it for myself.

Jon Heffley never compare yourself to Jesus.

Thank you

I would like to take the time to thank whoever left this message for reminding me that the world needs a sense of humor.

Well, why shouldn't I compare myself to Jesus if I see similarities in character and moral resolve? And when you answer, don't be afraid to use your real name. Of the things Jesus Would Do, being a coward would not be one of them.

Not a sermon... just a thought.

This was somewhat similar to my dead by 25 premonition/declaration. By my watch, I have a little under 2 years to fullfill my life's work. Only recently have I become okay with a thought of the possibility of actually living longer. Sometimes I find it easier to set such an arbitrary deadline for myself, many times I found it depressing to really believe in a fate only I had ordained. Maybe I will die at 25, in a heap of glory, what-ifs, and shouldn't haves; however if things don't end on time, I guess I'll take solice in 'better late than never.'
