Out With The Old..........

....and in with the New Year, coming quite quickly! I keep asking myself where 2009 went, but at this point it is a moot question. It is gone.....along with a lot of harsh moments, some avoidable, some not. I am actually looking forward to 2010 in a number of ways: art, health, blog, friends. And not necessarily in that order. I think the friends know they come first, then the blog......
I am not, nor ever have been, a person for New Year's Resolutions as I think most who make them would say they fall by the wayside far too fast, but I do think there are areas of life I want to reexamine, revamp and in general, try for a better self, thus making 2010 a better year.
I had considered a laundry list of things I wished I could have changed in 2009, but then was struck with "WHY?" We all have them and they prove useless in looking forward.
So here is what I hope for my readers in 2010:

--More time for quality time in your lives
--More creativity and learning
--More in the way of peace and health both mentally and physically in a world that pulls us every other way
--More realization of the good that we all have now
--More vision to see the possibilities in our futures
--More belief in yourselves, your work, your abilities
--More love, plain and simple

If that doesn't start making you feel glowing and cozy, then how about something to make you laugh???

Ring in the New Year in a fun way, party like an animal and be safe!!! And I'll meet you right back here, next year!!!

To all of you who have been part of this blogging adventure in 2009, I thank you. Truly. And until next year, I bid you.......

Pax.
