Intentions: Part 2

I'm just starting to realize how much more goes into happiness than we are aware of. How do we choose our intentions? What intentions will make us happy? What if an intention isn't enough?

I think that Gretchen must have been on a track with her list of resolutions, but perhaps only because she had so much more of her life figured out than I do. She knew her intentions when she started. She knew what her resolutions would be because she knew when her intentions wouldn't be enough.

I can set the best intentions in the world, and neglect to honor them. I can set the best intentions in the world, and realize that I don't care if I honor them or not.
