When I was younger,

Very true!.. I find I don't stick to New Year's resolutions. I have to make my resolutions on any ordinary day through the year in order for them to seem to work out. But what day you do it on really doesn't matter, just that you get it done. 😊
I remember reading those columns in the newspaper as well. I kind of miss the old paper newspapers. Better to have something like that in your hand then some electronic device if you ask me.

what if you read about improving yourself instead of reading about improving others? Every time I read an advice column, which is not too many, I always had the opposite advice for the person writing in.
