a good thing, indeed...

(time square 1907)


to resolve to do better is a very good thing...
a very good thing, indeed:)

i didn't make a resolution in 2008
because,
if i remember correctly, i was just feeling too badly to do so.

today, however, is a new day and the beginning of a new year,
and i am feeling pretty well!!!

i feel the need to look at this year with the hope
(like the gentleman on the right in the above image)
of looking up and getting myself back on a positive track:)

i will turn 40 in june;
hopefully, that alone will be the incentive i need
to follow through with whatever goals i decide to set
for myself.

all i know is that i need renewal at this point in my life:

spiritually
emotionally
physically...


have a happy, healthy 2009,
my friends!!!

love and God's blessings,
dani xx

Dani, This already sounds like it might be an exhilarating year ahead. Turning 40 is indeed quite a milestone especially as you don't look old enough to even be 30. I look forward to sharing your thoughts on the matter during that period. I do wish you a wonderful and stimulating 2009.
Love and hugs XXXXOOOO

40 years old! Oh my goodness! Well, you know they say that 40 is the new 20. Or maybe 40 is the new 30. Or maybe it's that 40 is the new 35. I can't remember. All I know is that it wasn't that bad for me turning 40. That was 3 years ago. 50 might be weird though. I think 50 is the new 30.
