How does it feel to finally make it to another year? Some might say, "well, I don't know.....guess it feels the same." No, I really do feel something different in my spirit for 2008. I for one am glad to say goodbye to 2007. It was a difficult year for many. The number 7 is symbolic for "completion and perfection." The number 8 is "New Beginnings." Actually my attitude has changed toward each day. I have committed to living each new day with excitement, motivation and with a greater desire to Please the Lord. I want my life to really mean something. I want to grasp the idea that "I woke up this morning, wow...what a gift." God has blessed me with a body that moves and a sound mind. Each day is special...even with all the struggles, this day is special. I want to share with you thoughts that a dear friend shared with me. "Today I wish for you a day of ordinary miracles." A fresh pot of coffee you didn't have to make yourself. An unexpected phone call from an old friend. Green stoplights on your way to work. I wish you a day of little things to rejoice in.....the fastest line at the grocery store. Your car keys right where you can find them. A good sing along song on K-Love. I wish you a day of perfection and happiness......Little bite-size pieces of perfection that give you the funny feeling that SOMEONE is smiling on you, and holding you so gently because you are special and rare. I wish YOU a day of Peace, Happiness and Joy. They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them, but then an entire life to forget them. Take the time! How does it feel now?? Wishing you a blessed New Year!
