The beauty of a new day

It’s that interesting time of the year when people spring forth into another year with hope & good tidings and sweep the bad taste of the previous year under wherever it chooses to disappear. 2014 has been just yet another continuum of time sealed in a capsule. Another year with challenges and opportunities which were set before me where relationships developed, evolved and just plain vanished. I’m going to make it about me in 2015, because only when I become a better me can I share the benefit of that with others. My Creator: Thank you for the precious moments that I physically felt your hugs in the wind, your smile in the sunshine and your breath in the very moments where I thought I couldn’t go on. I cherish our conversations and your still yet powerful voice when I needed fuel for my soul. In 2015 I vow to be still and let go so that you can do your thing in my circumstances. My Husband: Thank you for the years that has stretched me to grow from the girl that I was to the woman that I never imagined that I could become. One of the greatest gifts you have given me is the capacity for forgiveness, endurance, patience and acceptance. In 2015 I vow to be simply a better me for you. My Children: Thank you for smacking me back to reality to understand that superwoman really is just a superhero and it’s ok for me to be the “imperfect mom” In 2015 I vow to be more in your space – but only in a good way :-) My Parents: Thank you for instilling in me integrity, honesty and contentment. I appreciate all the support that enabled me to do the things I only dreamed of, and to further validate that family is all I have. In 2015 I will strive to be the daughter that I was created to be in your lives My Sister: Thank you for filling every role in my life that I needed at every opportune moment. In 2015 I pray that you be a little bit selfish and I hope I can be half the sister you’ve been to me. Zaitun Peace: Thank you for blessing me with another sister and for making friendship so refreshing again. In 2015 I’ll pay it forward to you. Me: To be continued………………. So as 2015 brings in its "freshness" I anticipate pitfalls and springboards while I continue the journey to growth and fulfilling my purpose. If you happen to be reading this, I hope you see each day as brand new and enter each day full of hope and good tidings! Godspeed
