It is quiet in the house
outside there are fireworks being set off, and I can hear the pop pop pop of them
the christmas tree lights still glimmer
the glass of wine is almost finished
just like this year ...
it has been a year, and has been full of much
good and hard
happy and sad
making new memories and recalling old ones
birthday celebrations
and some funerals
Father Time marches forward without missing a beat
and we are marching with him whether we want to or not
2024
your chapter is almost complete
and we will shortly turn the page over to the next chapter of our lives
and all that is held within the parameters of the 365 days that begin in ten minutes
and tonight we will go to bed after kissing our people Happy New Year
knowing that tomorrow will feel different because it begins a fresh new year
Goodbye 2024
your chapter is complete and full of stories
some just beginning, some finished and some taking on a plot that is unlike anything we may know
only our Heavenly Father knows what this year holds
and we can be fearful or choose to live it fully
(O LORD HELP ME TO CHOOSE TO LIVE IT FULLY)
and we can write our daily entries on a beautiful new journal
using threads that represent the color and goodness of our lives
on a brand new tapestry
but in this moment
in this time
we say good-bye 2024 ... we end with gratitude in our hearts
and step forward with great hope
Good-bye 2024 -
your ending is a new beginning
We do not know what you hold 2025
but our trust is fully in the ONE who holds it
and our God never hangs us out to dry!!
So onto the great adventure that I feel like He has for me/us.
Only time will tell.
Good-Bye 2024 ... and hello New Year!
I am glad to see you.
