Happy New Year!

I hope that you all are having a great first day of 2011. This year I hope to look forward with anticipation and excitement and optimism. Of course, being optimistic opens oneself up to disappointment, heartbreak, even. But, I’ve found that I just can’t look at this thing called life any other way.

So, here’s a new year!
Here’s to optimism!
Here’s to looking ahead!
Here’s to trying for the best and for learning new things!

Have fun today…watch football, eat black-eyed peas, love your family and friends.

I wish y’all a blessed 2011!
