Funny Naya!

My niece really likes to be funny, she likes to do something and then say "funny naya!". Today she was funny without meaning it. On the way back from the shops we saw a dead bird lying on the road, she wanted to know why it couldn't fly so her mom said that dead birds can't fly, she responded "put new batteries in"

Already the year feels old

Wow it is the 19 January today and already the year feels old.

My life seems to have gotten so busy, it was good to be able to take a time out this evening and visit the Temple, a chance to remember what the really important things are.

2011

I know that many people will echo the sentiments I heard today, that there is no point in making new years' resolutions and if you want to change you should not matter what time of year.

Well for myself, I am excited for the New Year. Call me an eternal optimist but I can't help feeling like this. I love new beginnings. A new year fills me with the same excitement that a new notebook does, all those blank pages waiting for thoughts, a new year is full of blank days just waiting to be filled up with exciting things, and mundane things and sad things and happy things, I want it all.

I am going to have  great year because I choose to do so!

So choose and you can have a great year too!
