Back on the wagon

Happy New Times!
2011 went whirling, twirling by, crashing into the end of December. Suddenly, January is half-over and I am still wishing it was Christmas!
In my 32 years in this planet, life makes more sense. Our year was full of stretching, pushing, and growing into our lives. We made peace with our surroundings. We squeezed the life out of change and I am sad to put it to bed.
I know that the world keeps spinning and that calendars are man-made. January 1st is the same as January 16th. The sun went down on a day and crept up behind the mountains the next. I really just took a calendar off the wall and replaced it with a new fancier one. I would like to continue the momentum of 2011. I have looked at 2012 as a blank page...a page that can be colored by disaster or pain. It is not. It is nothing. It doesn't matter. I simply took a break at the end of 2011 because I needed it!
I will resume Power Thoughts because I NEED TO! I have found myself lost in fear again. Fear of silly things that may or may not come to pass. I have been worrying a lot. I need to reign in my basketcasiness.
I learned today that I have a nickname in a circle of friends that I love dearly, but have known for a short-time. They call me Waterfall on account of my many tears. My first reaction was to be offended...but then it became endearing. I am a weepy gal. God speaks to me that way. My heart is open to the human experience and if that makes me a Waterfall than so be it! May God Bless your New Year and make his face shine on all that you do! I would advise each and everyone of you to CHANGE THE THINGS that trouble you TODAY! What have you got to lose?
