Hello 2016!

1/1/2016

A new year means many things to us. A fresh start, new opportunities, a clean slate, renewed goals, big dreams and the wonder of what is to come. I'm watching the Tournament of Roses parade right now, one of my own traditions for January 1st. The theme of this year's parade is, "Find Your Adventure" - what a great way to start off a year with active anticipation! We're not just bystanders in our lives, there certainly is an adventure before us, waiting to be found.

As much as I love the fresh start of January 1st, I have come to adopt the philosophy that every moment is a fresh start. The adventure of our lives is a collection of all these moments: good, bad and ugly - all working together to tell a story, all for a purpose. I wonder, what will the chapter about 2016 say?

What adventures await you this year? What are you leaving behind? I'd love to hear about your hopes and dreams for 2016! Here's to a peaceful, hopeful, joy-filled new year!

Thank you for this post! I love it. It really spoke to my heart when you said that every moment is a fresh start. This needs to become more real to me. Thank you for the reminder! Happy New Year to you both. Thank you for the impact that you continue to have on my life. Though we do not spend much time together, your posts, your art, your music...all of these things make my heart glad. I am so grateful for your friendship. One of the things I want to do in 2016 is spend more time with friends who always make me happy. You are one of those friends.
Blessings to you as new adventures await for all of us!

Oh Tina, I'm so glad this spoke to you! I have to remind myself of this too ;) I am grateful for your friendship, as well! The busyness of life gets in the way, too often, doesn't it?! Looking forward to connecting more this year. Much love to you!
