HAPPY NEW YEAR

Its the year of the Tiger. It comes only once every 12 years and now has come twice since my daughter was born. She just spent her 1st new year's away from home with friends in New York. It also was her 1st time flying the friendly skys by herself too.

New years, like new days I feel, are God's way of letting us know we haven't got it right yet, and he's giving us another chance to do so. Maybe one of our resolutions should be is to TRY HARDER to get it RIGHT. To be more loving, compassionate and lil more tolerant of each other. I mean after all none of our sorry asses are perfect. In the coming days, weeks and months a head try to focus a lil more on doing these things and I bet you'll have a more meaningful and productive NEW YEAR!

IF: renewal

  6. MD, when did you start this blog?!

    Anyway, looks like you've been busy doing some terrific things.
    I like what you have to say regarding a new year and a new start.

    I'm hoping I can be true to myself this year, that way I won't let others down if I don't constantly let myself down ;)

    Happy, happy new year to you!
