DAY 1.....2019



KWANZA DAY 7..... FAITH 



Today is the first day of 2019.  It’s a new day, a new month, new year and new beginning.   Today many begin their resolutions they made although I know many begin the 2nd of January with their resolutions.   
As I enjoy the day with writing this and having my usual New Year’s Day coffee (an Irish coffee at that); I am hoping that the coming year will be better than last. 
Of course it’s only a hope and wish as we never know what is in store for us.  
On January first we make resolutions for the year ahead; to me, as I always say, a resolution means that I resolve to do something and it will be done. Now if we make good intentions or goals we try hard to make sure they are complete by years end. We are not resolving to do something but working towards something instead. 
Today I think about the goals/good intentions I made in 2018. Many I must say were not realistic but I would begin each time I failed.  Today I begin my new 2019 I intentions/goals for 2019. As always I plan or hope to follow through and if I find I have failed I will BEGIN again. 
It’s the first day of a new month and a new  year.  How you decide to proceed is up to you.  No one can predict your fate; what you do is up to you.  
Happy New Year to you.....enjoy the day. 
As I said it’s up to you....you alone are the master of your destiny for the new year.  


                 HAPPY NEW YEAR 
   (From the book “HOLIDAY GREETINGS”)

How fast the year has come to an end
   Again we wonder, where did the year go?     
      Past twelve months sped by quickly 
         Pondering at years end, we recall all 
                      we had done 
           Yet we wonder....we’re all our goals 
                         accomplished?
 
Now another year will begin again....another 
                  chance 
   Each of us makes goals for the next 
                     twelve months 
     Will we follow them through from 
                  beginning to end?
  
Year after year....good intentions by us are 
                     made
   Each objective....carefully thought 
                   through
      A promise made to our own self, no one 
                      else 
        Resolutions made this New Year’s 
                  Day....will we keep?
