I know resolutions can be a little silly and get dropped quickly. But setting goals is good practice, and any excuse for self-reflection is a valid one.

So yeah, what goals do you have in mind? Bonus points if you can be specific, realisitic, and/or measurable.

Do you plan to start a new language this year? Hit new milestones with ones you're already learning?

To connect with my sister’s widow. She killed herself last year, was an international translator (spoke 12), and her husband & son both speak Italian. I’m trying to learn mostly to connect with the husband because her son is still very young (7).

I'm sorry that happened, but that's really great that you're trying to honor her and connect with her family. Whatever we do, human connection is usually the best of it. Good luck!
