2009. A new year is upon us and it is apparent that the hope for a much better year than last is felt by many, if not all.
Some of us start the new year with resolutions, some with hopes, some with regrets and some with optimism. I must admit that I, at some time or another, have been a subscriber to all of those. But this year I will make it a point to focus on the 'good'; whether it be alot or a little-there will be good...
We may not always take note of such but, it is there. It is up to us to see it. As grand or as miniscule as it may be- there is something for which to be grateful.
It does not hurt to hope for more; but it is imperative that we acknowledge what good already exists in our lives.
Now more than ever, we must dig deep and find that grain of compassion that settles near the bottom of our-selves. We need to lift it out, dust it off a bit so it shines, and hold it toward the sunlight. With a little bit of brightness from our souls and a lot of belief in good things...perhaps we will be able to grow a better year for ourselves, than the last...
