Water

Bruce Lee once said...

"Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way round or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves.
Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water my friend."

I plan on being water this year. It shouldn't be too hard since my zodiac sign is a water sign, right? Yeah, I know, easier said then done but I'm hoping that this year, I don't get wrapped up in the stress of work, and drama in general. I want to be like water - go around it, over it, or damn it if I have to, I'll go through it!

Speaking of water, I gave up pop (or soda if you prefer) as one of my "resolutions".  That leaves me with pretty much coffee and water to drink (and hopefully the occasional margarita). Wish me luck my fellow water-goers! Have you decided to give anything up as a new year's resolution? If so, what?
