"As 2011 comes to a close..." (Inspiration Monday on Saturday)

Judith Whitehead  from Amherst N.Y  is back guest blogging about  how another year has flown  by... Due to the timing of New years dakinetalk is posting this blog on Saturday in lieu of it's normal Monday schedule...Judith has worked as a health-care  professional for over 25 years.


 AS 2011 COMES TO A CLOSE…..

Here it is, another year flown by and as we quickly approach the year 2012, we begin to reflect on all that has happened this past year.  We ask ourselves what we have experienced, what have we accomplished and what goals do we have for the coming year. 

There are always the same ole new Years Resolutions…losing weight,  getting a better job, getting any job for some people…becoming a better person are a few of the favorites.  Many of us have New Years eve traditions; I for one usually always celebrate the beginning of the new year with friends that we have know for almost 40 years.  We always get together whether it is for dinner, entertainment  or drinks…its our tradition. 

 Traditions  are important to many and serve as comforting reminders that all is well with the world.  They are things we can count on no matter what else is going on in our lives, they ground us.  

This year I am not making any New Years Resolutions; I have decided to just do the best I can to make each day count and hope for a brighter future for all those in need.  My wish for my family and friends is for each of them to have a wonderful 2012, full of good health and happiness  and to live their lives to the fullest. 

 As many of us have figured out, life is very short and each year flies  by quicker than the previous.  Make it count,  and Happy New Year to you all.
