HAPPY NEW YEAR

Somewhere in the world you'll soon hear, 5 - 4 - 3- 2 - 1 - - -
HAPPY NEW YEAR.

After all that has happened, 2011 is about to fade into the annals of history.

How did you fare? Was 2011 a good year for you? Maybe so-so, or as it was for
many folks, a horrible year.

If it was good, God bless you. Keep the memories close to your heart.

Terrible weather conditions caused heartache for multitudes around the globe, and especially here in our area of the world.

War and pestilence caused problems for scores more.

Now is the time to look forward, persevere, put one foot in front of the other and plod ahead.

I know you've heard all the old adages, "There's a light at the end of the tunnel"," Every cloud has a silver lining", "When a door closes God opens a window". I'm sure you would like to bop the next person that recites one to you and tell them, "Walk a mile in my shoes."

I'm sorry if your 2011 was a year of despair. It's time to make a list. Yes, a list of what you want to accomplish in 2012. Perhaps you won't be able to do everything on it, but being successful in doing some of the list will make you feel good.

My prayerful wish, for all of you who read this blog is, I hope you and your loved ones have a peaceful, healthy, prosperous, warm and comforting 2012.

Since it is a Leap Year we will have 366 days to celebrate life, love, and happiness.

God bless one and all.

HAPPY NEW YEAR
