Goodbye 2008....

breakfast nook, yesterday
It was a great year.
It was a hard year.
It was a year of things i never imagined.
It was a year of shedding skin.
It was a year of dear goodness.
It was a year of deep work.
...and i am ready to say goodbye to it.
i do not make resolutions.
i end up rebelling against them so
it is pointless for me to make them.
but i do pray and i do hope and i forever make wishes.
i have the strangest big feeling about 2009.
im not sure what it is exactly, but i am sensing
something for sure, and do i dare say it feels
right and it feels good?
all i know is that whether this sense is true or not,
it feels so peaceful to hold this feeling of hope within.
especially when there were some years i dreaded
with the heaviest
of hearts.
i pray for love, beauty, healing,
and freedom from fear ~
for all of us.
i hope that the goodness of this world
will grow bigger and more powerful than
all the trauma and pain which seems to have taken
over lately.
and i wish this year to be the best one yet....
with prayer, hope and wishes ~
Happy New Year...
