OK - I have overcome my resistance of having a blog in fear that I will turn it into a diary which I kept both as a child and faithfully in my early '30's. The latter was read by a friend who no longer is...
I do want to say, dahlinks, that I hope everyone has a great '08 and that all reduce their fears little by little each day...and those without fear continue to show us the way, amen.
I woke up Jan. 1st 2008 chirping. I've managed to keep the feeling for 3 days. Perhaps, the fact that each New Years across the globe was fairly terrorist free (yes, I'm foolishly still shaking the dust of 9/11 from my psyche) , and that I was away from responsibilities and the misfortunes of others close to me was cause for my elevated sense of well being. Or maybe that feeling of family that comes from old and new friends couped up in a mountain home was simply good to feel again over a several day period after so much running around, working, playing and traveling that I did in '07.
Oooh, I'll have to blog those fun things of the past...soon...soon...now, it's back to the responsibility of workin' for the rent...

Diarys reveal more of our emotions and private thoughts otherwise no one would care so much who reads them. Perhaps your friend was just looking for just one line....and now has none. I hope you have come to peaceful terms with this and can still trust in friendships and recogize the real ones when they come into our lives.
The New Year always seems to bring some reflexion for all of us regarding ourselves and others in our lives. For me its about being kinder and turning away from the faults of those around us and praise a little more. It is also about being meeker to those of us who are weaker. Thinking more of others and a little less of ourselves. And last but not least pray that violence, terrorism and human sufferings are words that become obsolete in our vocabulary.
Thank you, cabby. Very wise.
