Why you should say NO to New Year’s Resolutions

Every year you make new resolutions . . .

Let me guess

  1. Lose Weight
    1. Go to the Gym
    2. Eat Right

2.) Do random acts of kindness

3.) Get in touch with old friends

4.) Spend more time with family

5.) Ditch social media occasionally


And every year these resolutions fizzle out within two months of the new year. That’s why this year I’m not committing to these declarations, but committing to being more thoughtful of them throughout the entire year. By September through December these resolutions have disappeared. Being mindful of healthy eating throughout the year or calling an old friend to go out for coffee or drinks later in the autumn season. I’d like to accomplish this new way of fulfilling my 2017 life changes. I encourage you to try as well.

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.
