1. Do for one person what I wish that I could do for everyone, but can’t.
4. Give more money away than I keep. And do it in a way that takes away the power of money and celebrates the power of love.
6. Do something really nice – that no one sees or knows about.
7. Compliment someone I have a hard time complimenting… and mean it.
11. Rather than emphasizing the best of myself and finding the worst in others – let me work on the worst in myself and look for the best in others.
Author and activist Shane Claiborne’s Resolutions 1,4,6,7 & 11 of “13 Hopes for 2013”
To value every moment, every interaction, to make the present beautiful for everyone I come across.

In 2013, I will strive to make faith a source of pride and a force for good in my life and in our region.

Along with others connected to Zones of Peace (www.interfaithcenterpa.org/si/zop), I pledge to be an instrument of God’s peace: to make my home and neighborhood zones of peace, free of fear, filled with respect, and marked by deeds of kindness.
Rev. Nicole Diroff, Interfaith Center of Greater Philadelphia
