A Resolution

I need to make a resolution. Otherwise, I will continue to squander my days instead of spending them as carefully as I spend money.

I don't want to phrase my resolution so tightly that it chokes off other possibilities; but I don't want to make it so fluid that my work hours will drip away into a puddle at day's end.

So here it is: instead of looking for projects that pay--which feeds my lifelong fear of ending up in genuine squalor--I will spend some money on things I want and/or need  (or both) and spend my time revising my spiritual manuscript until I feel it's entirely free of self-indulgence and therefore ready to show to an agent. And then show it.

So help me, God.  Please?
