Auld Lang Syne

Posted by Cheryl on Jan 08 2007 | The Kitchen Sink

And now, something short and sweet…

I’m reading blogs. I see resolutions, which are not resolutions, but goals or foci. All very good and I encourage and support every effort.

So, what shall I do with this new year?

And after having a think about it, I believe it shall not be what but rather how. I observed that as 2006 came to a close, the pace of life picked up enormous speed (much like a runaway train at times). Activities and tasks came and went without so much as a mental pause or physical breath to separate them. Simplicity was replaced with complexity.


And so, with the proverbial ‘clean slate’ of 2007 before me, I will endeavour to value and prioritize the important, harness and tame the urgent, and disregard that which is neither.

  1. Now that’s a great plan for the new year, one I may try to follow myself, where possible.

    . . . . and I say a heart-felt ‘amen’ - otherwise translated as “so be it!” - to that, as well! Here on the other side of the Atlantic, now 6 months after you wrote this, me reading it for the first time just now. . . .
