Reflections


 
Looking ahead....

Like many, I find I do a lot of reflecting at the end of the year. Some years are better than others; some leave us with sobering lessons while others bring us a sense of satisfaction and promise.

2012 will be one of those years that while I will remember the lessons learned, I will not be sad to see it end.

I am looking forward to the new beginning. As I hang my new calendar, I am reminded that 2013 is a brand new year ~ with no mistakes (yet)!

For years now, I have refrained from making new year's resolutions. Not that I can't use improvement in various areas, but to avoid the inevitable opportunity of falling short of my expectations.

This year, I am stepping into 2013 one step at a time...one day at a time. It is my hope to spend more time in the garden...

    


              ....in my studio...

 

 
           .... and with friends.

 

 
 
I will stop and take in more sunsets...
 
 
I will slow down and enjoy my morning walks...
 
 
My New Year wish for you, dear blog followers, is to do what makes you happy. Make time for yourself ~ indulge in your passion...whatever it may be. Time is elusive...and there is no way to get it back.

May 2013 be the year you rekindle your interests...whether it be reading, hiking, cooking, art, crafting, sewing, gardening, scrapbooking....give yourself the gift of time for you.

Then, at the end of 2013....let's compare notes and see how we did!
Happy New Year!
