Starting Over

The nice thing about a new year is the new part. Around here it is certainly is not the weather which is God-awful. It seems like we regularly need a new starting point, just like the cupboards need a spring cleaning. A way to mentally begin again. I was talking with my incredibly cute intern today, who noted that she does not make resolutions, because when she finds something she needs to correct in her life, she does it right away. Which is, of course, what we would all like to do, but in the great scheme of things, we do not. At the same time, there is a flow to the small things, and we don't notice, except when we sit down and take stock. Then patterns surface. It will be interesting to see what happens and what doesn't. January is always full of possibility.
