My personal life ticked along as planned. I realised the vision (the beginnings, at least) I had longed for in my back garden, and all the rest moved along reasonably uneventfully. But outside of my little world…not so much.
Climate has shown its mighty force with record-breaking temperatures and, where I live, the devastating forest fires. Poor air quality due to smoke kept us indoors more often than wanted, and now, with no snow (or any precipitation), what can we expect in the New Year?
And what is happening worldwide, the hardships and sorrow so many are feeling, is too much to bear…
I’m not one to make New Year’s resolutions…I’m not that disciplined, and I don’t want to be hard on myself! But I plan to “live in the moment“, to truly be grateful for my good fortune, to “be present“. Despite all the negative forces out there, we can still smell the roses…see the beauty around us.
Cheers, everyone, to 2024! Let’s make it a good one…
