2007

Welcome Back!!!
The New Year started off with the Full moon, A time of bring new things out and into reality.
(Isn't Divine timing awesome!)
New beginnings,
New opportunities
New courage
New compassion,
New attitudes,
New ways of thinking.
I'm not a believer in New Year resolutions, but I am resolved to making the most of the coming year.
I am raising a glass in virtual toast to all of us fining resolve in 2007.
 
Let's all focus on out with the old, and in with the new...
.
Here is the  first thought for the day in 2007!!!
A New Year's Plea
By Edgar Guest


Lord, let me stand in the thick of the fight,
Let me bear what I must without whining;
Grant me the wisdom to do what is right,
Though a thousand false beacons are shining.

Let me be true as the steel of a blade,
Make me bigger than skillful or clever;
Teach me to cling to my best, unafraid,
And harken to false gospels, never.

Let me be brave when the burden is great,
Faithful when wounded by sorrow;
Teach me, when troubled, with patience to wait
The better and brighter to-morrow.

Spare me from hatred and envy and shame,
Open my eyes to life's beauty;
Let not the glitter of fortune or fame
Blind me to what is my duty.

Let me be true to myself to the end,
Let me stand to my task without whining;
Let me be right as a man, as afriend,
Though a thousand false beacons are shining.

 
Namaste,
Marianne Goldweber
