New Horizons



I like January.

The new slate. The beginning. The anticipation.

The expectations.

The hopes, the dreams, the opportunities.

The looking forward.


May the joy of being alive fill your heart and soothe your spirit.

I wish you all serenity and contentment.

Seems a little foggy. Or is that me?

I hardly pressed "publish" and there you were ... get out of my head Mr. Newberry ... it IS a little foggy ....

That's the problem of being punctual - nobody sees you do it.

Sees you do what?

Well, that's what Cassie Catlet has just commented on this post. I think what she means is that it's been about time you returned to blogland... and so cheerful, too. It makes me seem even grumpier in comparison... . Happy New Year!

I'd like January more if it weren't so cold. But I do love the new-startness of it.

Aha! As soon as I stopped checking multiple times per day you snuck one in. About time! I second everything you said! Including "Happy New Year!"

Serenity and contentment sounds good. Sounds enough too.

What lovely wishes for all of us. Without serenity and contentment, we have nothing.

And I love the picture, too.

Wishing you a filled heart, a beautifully soothed spirit and much joy throughout the year.

wishing you an expansively wonderful year, that the sky be blue, and filled with dreams.
