Reflections

At the start of 2013 I declared it the year of a fresh start, and sometimes we say things and just go through the motions without giving much thought to the impact of our words. The good book says there is power in the tongue and I think one of life’s lessons that I have carried away this year is to confess positively as much as possible. I am proud to say that slowly but surely when I have had nothing good to say, it has stayed up there in my  mind and just by not uttering it , it somehow dies away or won’t dominate my life….very redeeming

New Year’s Eve is already here and as I look forward to the New Year, I can’t help but look back to 2013. Looking back, I can’t believe how much most of it was characterized with fresh starts and especially one great major fresh start that includes relocation, relocation, and relocation. It hasn’t been a smooth journey but there is always the excitement of being in a new place and what opportunities lie therein.

 

That revelation alone makes me more determined to think seriously about the theme of my 2014 but I am already on the right track of declaring blessings and more blessings in my life. I dare not sum it up in one word but I already have a good feeling about 2014; hurry on.

For now I will look at the change of calendar with excitement, especially as unlike in the past where I subscribed to the school of same caste, same script  different numbers, I now look at the New Year as a time to look back, learn from the mistakes ,savor the milestones however small and be able to wear our most optimistic hats for the new year as we hope for better.

Will give it to finding my theme for 2014 but already harvest comes in mind. A blessed 2014.
