Happy New Year
Even before the bells tolled, I was fast asleep, having already celebrated and fought groups of people. I thought about my nephew Derrick in Afghanistan, knowing he had already rang in the new year..........not with family and friends, but in a sand filled war zone.
As I watched the groups of people out and about in Austin last night, I couldn't help but wonder what the big deal was. Why on this one night people want to celebrate, to dream big, to brush off the dust of the year before.
We have that amazing opportunity every single day. Each day of our lives really should be a nenewal, an ability to charge forward with renewed energy and vitality.
Do something amazing in 2011. Take a class, volunteer, renew old friendships, take a chance. Be the person that you always dreamed you could be. And in those moments when you think things could not get any worse, remember that you have thought that before.
