Rosehaven Cottage: Opening the new year with hope and savoring the old one with thankfulness

Opening the new year with hope and savoring the old one with thankfulness

Happy New Year 2011

I look back at an old year...
And I am thankful

I look ahead at a new year...
And I am hopeful

Like cutting into and savoring a beautifully ripe orange
Such sweetness was held in each of last year's slices of time

I cannot fathom what lies in store in each of next year's juicy slices

Your words...put together so beautifully, are a joy to me. I love the "beautifully ripe orange" and will think of them each time I enjoy an orange.
