Thoughts for the New Year

As 2010 comes to an end

and with 2011 just around the corner,

many thoughts go through my mind.

I thought of my most recent trip

with my sister.

It was to the

Big Bend National Park

 in west Texas, so

I decided to change my header photo

to one I took out there on the trip.

I was up in the,

what they call "the basin",

looking out "the window".

I had just had a very healthy meal,

and was sitting, relaxed,

enjoying the most beautiful view,

which looked down into

Terlingua.

This photo is now up to remind me daily

of the following,

for the new year.....

enjoy the little things,

relax and don't be stressed out,

get out in the outdoors more often,

be with family as often as I can,

eat healthier,

see the beauty that is around me,

walk more,

be inspired,

create from what inspires me,

look more closely,

listen intently,

use all my senses to the fullest,

learn something new every day,

have an open heart,

and

savor each day!

Wishing you all a

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
