New determinations

Call it resolutions or whatever....but the last two weeks I have really felt like trying harder to exercise more and eat better. I have felt renewed and revitalized since January began. I guess that because December was such a very low time for me that this new year has sparked a desire to pull myself up out of the dark miserable feelings that I was experiencing and do the healthier things that I know will make a difference, such as walking every morning in the fresh air and sunshine. And while I walk I try to do the deep breathing exercises. Our weather has been very nice...in the 50-60 degrees, so that makes it nice for wanting to be outdoors.

2008 is full of promise

Well..busy, hectic, stressful, sometimes overwhelming and depressing December is behind us. We’re into a brand new year now that is full of promise.

There’s something about January that is fresh, clean and uplifting. It is almost like we have a clean slate to begin with. The old is out....old year, old depression bouts, old messed up thoughts and feelings.

The new is in....a new year, a new beginning, new fresh healthier thoughts and feelings, a chance to set things right for a change, and every new day is an opportunity to strive to make our self and our life better than it was the day before.

And I have learned the power of prayer. We DO have a God that cares about us and desires to help us IF we turn to him and have faith in him. It DOES make a difference.

New Year...New Changes
