Strangers, enemies, friends, lovers.



Sometimes I wish I had a crystal ball. Uncertainty can be such a difficult thing. It can have a horrible way of allowing fear and negativity in. In reality though, the unknown also has that fabulous flip-side which means that anything unexpected can potentially happen at any time. Happy unexpected surprises ensure life stays alive and make way for tears of appreciation and smiles and butterflies where you never thought they could exist.
In ways we are master of our own fates. Sitting down simply waiting for things to happen never results in progression. If you want something, you have to go out there and get it and keep the determination even when things stand in your way. On the other hand, we have no control over many aspects of life and some of those we just have to accept and try to conquer.
Tomorrow is another day the same as each new day is simply another day but a new year starts tomorrow too. Some things we’ll leave behind us and be thankful for what they brought to our lives or be grateful that we can finally let go of them. And, some things we’ll carry forward with nervous anticipation, wondering where the path will lead and keeping the hope that wonderful things will come of them.  Being thankful and appreciative and open and  being yourself in the best way you can, is all we can do. And too, give smiles and remember how important love is. One thing leads to another and once,we all were strangers.
 Happy New Year*
