Lenten Resolutions

If you can start the day without caffeine or pills,

If you can understand when loved ones are too busy to give you time,
If you can take criticism and blame without

resentment,
If you can face the world without lies and deceit,
If you can relax without liquor,
If you can sleep without the aid of drugs,
If you can do all these things,
—then you are probably the family dog.
