A NEW YEAR BEGINS

I had the opportunity to read someone's writing on words today.   It was moving, enlightening and a blessing to me.   When I thought about this new year's word, I thought of how much this reading meant to me.  

A Blessing.   There are many definitions of blessings most of which invoke God -  however you define God.

For me, though, this is the definition of blessing that I enjoy...a beneficial thing for which one is grateful; something that brings well-being.

It is my hope that as I live out my life this year, some small thing that I may present in this blog will become a blessing to some reader.   And, I promise that I will be more conscious of those blessings that come my way…many of which pass by unnoticed.

For all of you who have wondered, I did close the house, get everything into storage, ready the trailer for travel, drive down to Alabama (It was a wild ride to say the least with a clogged I95,  wind and torrential rain, etc. but I made it.) and set up my trailer at a campgrounds.   All three of us…me and the cats…are fine if a bit exhausted.  

I will be resuming regular blogging on Monday, January 6.   Until then, I wish all of you a Happy, Safe and Enjoyable New Year…

Thanks for visiting...
