12/31/17 RMB Happy New Year!
Dear Rita Mae Brown,
Another year has zoomed by.
In this year some of us faced more challenges than others,
all of us had something, at some point or another to laugh about, or be
thankful for, or embrace.
My brother faced health challenges and overcame them to be
with us at our family reunion. I was thankful that, once again, he could sit across
the table from us, tease us, laugh with us, and give us comfort in his very
special way. He is a great brother, always has been. And beyond that, he is a
great man.
So we embark on a new year. I look forward to reading more
of your books, although at the rate you write them, I don’t know if I will ever
catch up to your current publication. I am in the middle of Whisker
of Evil.
I look forward to accomplishing more and being more of who I
want to be in the new year. Although I am happy with who I am, I think it human
nature to always want to move forward. I pray that those who guide our country,
and the many other counties that comprise our world, see the the wisdom in
allowing us to move forward together, as one humankind.
In The Four Agreements, a book of
Toltec wisdom, author don Miguel Ruiz reveals the following keys.
1.
Be impeccable with your word.
2.
Don't take anything personally.
3.
Don't make assumptions.
4.
Always do your best.
Sounds like a good plan for the new year to me :)
Happy New Year!
Loraine
