Happy 2013!! It's a brand new year and a fresh start! I'm not one to make a lot of resolutions (I will break them) but every year I pick a word, a theme, for the year. Something that is important for me to remember. 2012 was filled with twists and turns, and ups and downs (as most years are) but I grew and learned so much. I am grateful for the good and the bad, the sour and the sweet. I've decided that 2013 will be MY year. The word that I kept coming back to me was:
Yes to trusting myself.
Yes to letting my creativity soar.
Yes to open doors.
Yes to moving forward.
Yes to adventure.
Yes to listening.
Yes to growing.
Yes to happiness.
Yes to letting go.
Yes to LOVE.
A Blessing for the New Year
John O'Donohue
On the day when
The weight deadens
On your shoulders
And you stumble
May the clay dance
To balance you
And when your eyes
Freeze behind
The gray window
And the ghost of loss
Gets into you,
May a flock of colors,
Indigo, red, green
And azure blue,
Come to waken in you
A meadow of delight.
When the canvas frays
In the curragh of thought
And a stain of ocean
Blackens beneath you,
May there come across the waters
A path of yellow moonlight
To bring you safely home.
May the nourishment of the earth be yours,
May the clarity of light be yours,
May the fluency of the ocean be yours,
May the protection of ancestors be yours.
And so may a slow
Wind work these words
Of love around you,
An invisible cloak
To mind your life.
