new

beautiful day.jpg

it’s not the turning of a clock
but the turning of my heart
that makes for a new year

some days are just one more
of the days that went before
until I stop to notice

so, this year
is less about resolutions to break
and more about attention and appreciation

the nice thing about this frame
is that as soon as I remember my intention
it’s already accomplished

What a delight
to face the new year
without anticipated guilt

I’m smiling when write ’19’

new year’s prayer and resolution


My prayer for 2018
Is that it will be better than 2017.
Sounds like a pretty low bar.

My resolution for 2018
(and I do better with low bars)
Is that I will be part of the difference.
