Happy New Years!
Friday, December 31, 2004First of all, may you have a brilliant, sweet, tranquil and absolutely fabulous 2005. I find I do, after all, have a New Year's superstition. More like a tradition, truthfully...every year, as I take my last shower of the year, I focus on the bad...things I regret, things I allow to bother me long after they're forgotten, guilts and sorrows, and I imagine them rising our off my heart and off my soul and to the surface of my skin, where it scrubs away and flows down the drain. I did that. Tonight, I will sit in the colored glow of the trees lights, after midnight, and I will think of all the good things. I will think about my new friends and the old ones I managed to hang on to, I will think of the fact that I have two book contracts in my filing cabinet, and I will be very thankful, and I will weave these things tightly into the places vacated by the bad thoughts. I don't believe in resolutions the way they've come to be defined by our culture, but I do resolve to follow through with my plans. So, my resolutions, I suppose, would be to finish my third book, try and get some of my short stories published, keep ahead on book reviews, and most importantly, keep up with my friends. :D Permalink Cindy scribed this at 7:47 PM 0 comments |
