Starting off the New Year right


Even those who don’t celebrate the solstice, Christmas or any similar holiday event, do face the New Year together with the rest of the world. (Ok there may still be some pocket somewhere that don’t have a calendar or who still go by the old Gregorian one).

It was very appropriate that today’s a.word.a.day be the following!
We must be willing to let go of the life we have planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us. -E. M. Forster, novelist (1 Jan 1879-1970)

I have very rarely made any New Year’s Resolutions, but this one would be a good one, together with my “happiness” box (somehow the idea drifted across my mind a couple of days ago that it would be a good thing to write one slip of paper a day and deposit it in a physical “happiness” box).

Enjoy the New Year – make of it what you will – or what it makes of you.
Love, Joy, patience and good health are just a few of my wishes for family, friends, and the world in general. Peace might be asking for too much!
