New Year...New Year's Resolution?

Ok so for the past few years I have resolved NOT to make a resolution for the new year because I have felt that it's just an empty promise to myself. I actually have one this year and for good reason. I have resolved that I am going to go to church at least twice a month. Now as most of you know, I'm Catholic and have always been very involved with church and always go every weekend. At least I do when I'm home. I have only been to mass once since being up at school and that was Easter Sunday and that good ol' Catholic guilt propelled me there. But being home for a few weekends and going to church a handful of times made me miss it. And there is no reason for me not to go to Sunday mass. There is a perfectly good Catholic church just 5 minutes from my house at school and I can easily get my butt up in time for mass. I just feel like I should. It makes me feel safe when I'm in church. I guess I haven't gone to a different church other than my home church because I was scared that it just wouldn't be the same. But no place is the same as what you're used to. Everything is different. It has to be. If everything was the same, there would be no exploration or really any need to. That's what's so great about the world. Every place is different and you can go and experience new things. So I resolve to go to church at least twice a month.
