HAPPY 2012!!!

2012 is finally here! This is the year I will be a 'quarter of a century' years old! Started this year feeling nostalgic and reflected upon many ups and downs in life this past year. Time to start anew and let go of the past. Thanks be to God for all the wonderful blessings and praying that He will continue to grant us love, peace, joy and mercy all the days of our lives!

"Another fresh new year is here...

Another year to live!

To banish worry, doubt, and fear,

To love and laugh and give!

This bright new year is given me

To live each day with zest...

To daily grow and try to be

My highest and my best!

I have the opportunity

Once more to right some wrongs,

To pray for peace, to plant a tree,

And sing more joyful songs!"
