New year, new times

So it's a new year...and it started off with dreams that are more confusing than anything else. I hope it's not a teaser of what's to come. Knowing me it will be however.

Happy are those who dream dreams and are ready to pay the price to make them come true.
~ Leon Joseph Cardinal Suenens


I have a strange feeling about this year. It's a good feeling and a somewhat nerve producing feeling. I feel like I'm on the cusp of change, of doing what I'm in this town to do. That's where the nerves come in. If I finish what I'm here to finish, do I stay after that or do I move on and start on my new task? Also curious as to what that new task might be. Time will tell.

Be always at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let each new year find you a better man. ~Benjamin Franklin

Year's end is neither an end nor a beginning but a going on, with all the wisdom that experience can instill in us. ~Hal Borland

Every man should be born again on the first day of January. Start with a fresh page. Take up one hole more in the buckle if necessary, or let down one, according to circumstances; but on the first of January let every man gird himself once more, with his face to the front, and take no interest in the things that were and are past. ~Henry Ward Beecher
