Pensive

Can a place be pensive? Or is it a reflection of my own mind. The bay is calm today and the hills surrounding her are shrouded in fog and mist. Not ready to reveal there true selves perhaps. Maybe later in the day the sun can coax them out. For the time being it seems oddly appropriate and fitting.

2012

Possibly the most written about year ever. Will the world end? Will it dramatically change? Will it be nothing more than another year and another calendar? Perhaps if nothing else, it's prompting people to be more. More reflective, more spiritual, more compassionate, etc.
I am not sure what to hope for, much less what to expect. So, I will keep paddling, keep swinging, keep trying to live a life that brings joy to me and those around me. And for me, that's easier said than done.
I think my resolution will be to do the things that make me happy while doing the things that make others happy. Somehow, someway I need to find a way to blend them both
Happy New Year to all
