The Anticipation of Things To Come

It's December 30. 2010 will be over in the blink of an eye. As I compose this post, people all over the world are mentally compiling a list of their New Year's resolutions. Lose weight. Save money. Go back to school. Pay bills on time.  It is never a tradition of mine to make resolutions because the hustle and bustle of life ensures that by March, I don't even remember what they are!

Even still, I am excited and giddy about the things that a new year holds. The fresh white coating of snow we were blessed with this week brought the anticipation of things to come.  My role as a parent will see milestones called graduation, 1st day of college and 1st day of middle school!  As an Educator, I will begin the pursuit of yet another advanced degree and continue to influence the effectiveness of teachers and the lives of students.  As a Photographer, I will continue to be mentored by the best and travel the world capturing the memories and experiences of those who value life and love as much as I do!

I thank God in advance for life, health, strength, a sound mind and a family support system that is OUT OF THIS WORLD!  I salute you 2010! I have learned, loved, and grown but it is time to move on. I am embracing all that 2011 will bring, both the good & not so good, because either way I live another day to fulfil my divine purpose.

Happy New Year! May it be a BLESSED road for all of you!
