A New Year’s Gift

“Hope smiles from the threshold of the year to come, whispering ‘It will be happier'” – Alfred Lord Tennyson

As the sky brightened on this New Years Day, we were presented with this fleeting vision. I’m choosing to take this as hint of things to come.

Wishing us all a year of good health, love and compassion.  Here’s to 2017!

On The Horizon

It’s that time of year, isn’t it?  A time of reflection and of anticipation. 

In taking stock of this year, I can say it hasn’t been such a bad one. In fact it’s been pretty good. For me, it has included quite a bit of taking stock. I know it’s time to let some things go. And I’m getting ready for a new challenge. A new start. 

As I’m writing, I’m looking at this horizon: 

Our mantle is decked out for the holidays, and it’s fine. But.  That mirror. That’s gotta go.  A nice big piece of art work will go up in its place. 

Something big and bold.  Something created by me. 

That’s the pool I’m going to leap into. A great big cannonball splash!  I’m going to call myself an artist and I’m going to throw myself into this art thing. 

It’s time. 

Watch this space…..

WPC-  new horizons

Monday, Monday…Motivational Monday

What if you did something you’ve never done before? What if you did it this week? What if it was awesome? What if it wasn’t as scary or weird or uncomfortable or hard as you imagined?
