Every year I name the new year, sort of like the Chinese.
2011 was
The Year of Surprises.
Yep there were several of them.
Some good, some not so good, but at the end of the year they have all been dealt with and what seemed like stressers turned into blessings.
We must all be ready to use serenity, courage and wisdom when things happen and give them time to settle into a beneficial situation rather than reacting in a state of panic. Once things begin to settle then we are able to focus on the best actions to take.
For example when I was diagnosed as diabetic in February I was flabbergasted but after nearly a year of taking better care of myself , I feel better than I did at this time last year.
The stress of learning that was allowed to subside, I followed the plan laid out for me by my doctor and that particular surprise took a turn for the better.

The good, the bad and the beautiful.
I am naming the year 2012
The Year of Renewed Hope
