Celebrate endings - for they precede new beginnings.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.
- Lao Tzu
From small beginnings come great things.
- Anonymous proverb
It is again that time of year when people begin to think about New Year's Resolutions. I have mixed feelings about New Year's resolutions because EVERY day is the beginning of a new life for each of us. On the other hand, I appreciate that we set aside one day each year to remind ourselves of the power of new beginnings. In that sense, New Year's Day is similar to Thanksgiving Day. I think of Thanksgiving Day, not as the one day each year to express gratitude, but as a day to celebrate the gratitude that I feel each day of the year.
