Hi folks,
This was written by my wife (as she explains in the next few sentences) and it is offered as warmest wishes for you and yours this New Year.
~~~
Written by Holly:
This time of year, many of us naturally become
introspective. We take stock of our lives, revisit our experiences, and take
note of lessons learned.
So, I dusted off this old piece that I wrote
"literally" a million years ago! ;-)
It's okay if you think it's a little corny. It is.
(Also, I make no claims to being a poet.)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As December breathes its frosty last,
Sit quietly and ask:
This past year -- what were my joys?
What were my sorrows?
What do I most regret?
And, what have I tried to forget?
What new piece of me has my experience cast?
And, am I somehow different this year than I was the
last?
Am I a better human being now than the year before?
Or is this last year's goodness, good enough for another
year more?
Did I make any difference in anyone's life?
Did I allow anyone to make a difference in mine?
Which relationships have I deepened?
Which others are bruised and beaten?
Did any of my dreams, this year come true?
And, did I remember to feel gratitude?
Did I dream any new dreams, or am I forgetting how?
And, what does the world need most from me now?
H-
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
May you find Peace & Love no matter what this way comes.
And, may Prosperity & Joyful Abundance be heaped upon
you. Happy New Year!
