happy new year, 2007
another year gone – 2006 has been so amazing, that i’m sad to see it go. so many dreams came true, how can 2007 possibly live up to it?
i don’t do new year’s resolutions. instead, i write down those things which i wish to leave behind, and then burn them and let the ashes fly away with the breezes of the new year. i find it much more satisfying than a handful of half-kept promises recycled every 365 days.
still, there are things i want more of in the year to come. i don’t see these as goals, but rather as an open desire to invite these into my life through continuing to grow and change.
travel – lots more travel. that’s unlikely to happen in the next twelve months, but i want to plan and dream of new places yet unseen. there’s still so much more world out there.
friends – more time spent with more friends.
more writing. more creativity.
more running. i’d really love to do another marathon, if my knees will let me. but at least, continue with the running i’ve been doing. it makes me feel so much more alive.
more acceptance – more peace, more calm. more exploration of buddhism.
more family time. more visits.
more love. more love. always more love.
and if i can invite even a little more love into my life, 2007 will be a huge success, no matter what else happens.
wishing you and yours more love in the coming year…
