Countdown to 2011 - Three Days Left

“For last year's words belong to last year's language and next year's words await another voice.” -Little Gidding II- by T.S. Eliot

Our countdown to 2011 continues with May and June. The nearing of an end to spring and the beginning of summer, two favorite months for me.

In May, my favorite article was the idea of picking up an old crank phone and calling the past. What might I learn from sucha phone conversation?

June brought the story of how our differences should be celebrated. But that those differences can be harnessed to make each other great.

"Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right." ~Oprah Winfrey

As we continue our countdown to 2011, March and April are up next with only four days to go. In March, there was a story about the fact that its going to rain on us from time to time.

Then April came along and I spoke of putting the pieces of the puzzle of your life together.

"Year's end is neither an end nor a beginning but a going on, with all the wisdom that experience can instill in us." ~Hal Borland

Countdown to 2011 - two each day this week, favorites of mine from 2010.

In January, I posted a story about getting beyond obstacles in your life.

And then in February, a young woman was painting opportunity for her life and didn't realize it. Which is the same thing we do everyday, paint our path for opportunity to come along.

Christmas Eve 2010

And here we are, Christmas Eve ... a joyous and happy time for everyone.

And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night. And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid. And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this [shall be] a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.
~ Luke 2: 8-14 ~
