Happy New Year One and All!
And may it bring you your heart's desire…

Of course, that means you have to figure out what that is…

Your heart's desire, I mean. 

I've never been one for New Year's Resolutions.

If it's important, like exercise, weight loss, eating more healthily, why wait?

If it's not important, why bother?

On the other hand, the beginning of a new year is a good time to reflect on the changes one would like to make to one's life path. 

Making a resolution to do something you don't really want to do (but think you ought) never works.

Spending a few moments searching your own heart to find out what makes it sing….

Now, that's important….

Here's one for me:

Let's all work to make a wonderful, meaningful year for all of us.

I wouldn't quibble if it was a prosperous one, too; a bit of financial security is always nice.

  4. Yes the lilacs are one for me too…a promise of Spring and all that 2009 has to offer.It has been so enjoyable following your blog over the past year. I look forward to being inspired and laughing myself silly.

  6. Happy New Year!
    I actually made a resolution, more like a serious conversation with myself, I guess. And I decided this year I will do something I have been wanting to do for a long time. We’ll see what happens. I like the way you said it: spending a few moments searching our heart… Indeed, that is important at all times.
    Wishing you a year of peace and joy.

  11. Now that’s a resolution worth working for… happy new year, Katie. May 2009 bring you all the heat, light, plumbing, and high-speed internet connections you could ever want!

  12. Happy New Year Katie!
    I think putting meaning into the year is a great goal.
    ps I was in the southern Alps…

  15. This would be a good time of year to start a list of fun things you _must_ accomplish by the end of the year, rather than worthy or healthy things. Why not make a New Year’s resolution to have more fun? 🙂

  16. Thanks for all the warm wishes everyone – and right back to you… Happy, Happy New Year – and hopes for a better 2009!
