“May light always surround you;
Hope kindle and rebound you.
May your hurts turn to healing;
Your heart embrace feeling.
May wounds become wisdom;
Every kindness a prism.
May laughter infect you;
Your passion resurrect you.
May goodness inspire
your deepest desires.
Through all that you reach for,
may your arms never tire.”
― D. Simone
Wishing you all a very Happy New Year.
I’ll leave you with one of my favourite songs from my very favourite singer: Ella Fitzgerald and “What Are You Doing New Year’s Eve?”.
🎵 “Here comes the jackpot question in advance…” 🎵
See you next year!
Julie 🌷
“Year’s end is neither an end nor a beginning but a going on, with all the wisdom that experience can instill in us.”
