“Year’s end is neither an end nor a beginning, but a going on,
with all the wisdom that experience can instill in us.”
As 2012 comes to an end, it always seems like an appropriate time to review what has gone before, and prepare for the next page or chapter of life. I would like to take the time to thank all of the people who have been supportive and even pushed my into exploring new areas. This has been a good year. I have begun to learn my newest craft, writing, better, and sharpen the message we hope to deliver. Learning about blogging and writing continue to be a work-in-progress. I have added some things, and taken some other things away. I have added weekend affirmations and Sunday morning musings and journal exercises.
