“The object of a New Year is not that we should have a new year. It is that we should have a new soul and a new nose; new feet, a new backbone, new ears, and new eyes. Unless a particular man made New Year resolutions, he would make no resolutions. Unless a man starts afresh about things, he will certainly do nothing effective.”
― G.K. Chesterton
I feel pretty good. We survived the whole 12-21-12 thing (which I didn't get to mention because I missed posting last week, you know, because it was Christmas Eve), I am enjoying a break from the usual routine and spending lots of time with my family. And I am so looking forward to the New Year. A new beginning, full of resolutions, promises and plans for life improvement. It's hard to know where to begin. I know from past experience that resolutions are little more than good intentions and have an average life span of 1 - 21 days. Still, no harm can come from reaching for the stars. Every passing year, every ambition lifts me closer to the heavens. The Plan is in full swing, and I can't wait to see what 2013 has in store. If it brings as much joy and abundance as 2012, it will be fantastic. How many steps nearer will I be to my dreams? Leaps and bounds beyond the uncertainty and trepidation of years past. With gratitude for the gifts I have been given (that you are to be counted among), I receive with open arms the gifts to come.
