Some thoughts on the turn of the year

It's been a rough one this year.  I won't bore you with details, because, compared to other lives, it feels like so much whining, but my stuff is as real as anyone's.

So looking ahead, I choose--

 Not to stress so much about what I can't change

To work on the changes I can make

To not want so much the things I can't have

To rejoice as often as I can for the things I do have

So I have chosen my word of intent for 2015, and it is

CELEBRATE
