Another year gone by, another year added to my age, another year I have lived.......
As I look back to 2011 I see a long hard year, so many challenges, so many obstacles but yet I am still here.
I can still smile, I can still wake p each morning and make a decision on what it is I want to do for myself:
I can still laugh, I can still sing my favorite songs, I can still call my family or friends, I can still ask for forgiveness from those I have wronged, I can still forgive those who have wronged me, I can still dream of my goals, I can still dance and above all I can still love......
I am going to not focus on any of the struggles of 2010 but be grateful for all the accomplishments and all the blessings I have in the form of family, friends and loved ones. I have so many angels that look out for me and I should focus on what I get not what I don't.
This year my goal is to LOVE better, I discovered a verse in the Bible by chance that many people probably know but I didn't know this verse and I want to live by it, it simply says everything I want to be and have been trying to do for so long.
1 CORINTHIANS 13: V 3- 8
3 If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast,[b] but do not have love, I gain nothing.
4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8 Love never fails.
This is what i have printed and framed to hang on my bedroom wall and my desk.
2011 is my year to re-learn how to love! We are all guilty of throwing the word around and thinking we know how to really love when we really don't.
Happy New Year....
With Love
Bless
