As this current year ends; every New Year brings us the opportunity for innovative intentions, special adventures and a chance to reflect on the times and events of the past year.
 |
| Many of us will ring in the season with a beautiful bottle of champagne and a magical evening with friends! Some will spend a quiet evening at home surrounded by the loving warmth of family. |
 |
| One thing I intend in 2015 is to look for beauty and joy all around me. I will spread love, peace, and light everywhere I go and to everyone I meet. |
 |
| LIfe is never perfect and there will always be challenges and rainy days. Yet, there is so much in life that I have to be grateful! |

 |
| Surrounding myself with light from above will keep me ever thankful. |
 |
| Embracing New Adventures!! |
 |
| So celebrate this wondrous life we have here on Earth and remember that all good things come to us in the most unexpected ways! |
Happy New Years to my beloved Family, loyal friends and faithful Followers!

ReplyDeleteDear Karena,
ReplyDeleteYou can delete this comment.
I've been looking at your dated icon on my blog roll — the Civil War one that never updates — and I notice that if I click on your name, I get your current posting. So I have a suggestion. Why don't you go to that posting, delete the text, rename the title with the words "Click on 'The Arts by Karena' for new postings," and then replace the book image with your portrait, or an image of your home page? I think that could possibly work very well, especially for someone like myself who wants you on my blog roll!
Best wishes, Mark
Good morning beautiful friend!
ReplyDeleteI am finally here; we are having really bad weather here, but still required to go to work! It took me 2 hours to get home last night in bumper to bumper traffic in very bad snowy conditions. There were 589 car accidents yesterday!
Thank you for the well-wishes for the year....the same to YOU! All is well, but I'm already starting the year off with some health issues....I guess this is what happens when you age! But all is well, (I hope!)
Be well, enjoy the new challenges of fun and creativity! Anita
Gorgeous post I am so glad yo like the pumpkin! I hope you recover very soon take your antibiotics, meditate and a little chicken soup would' nt hurt!

Life is like a battle, if you don't know how to defend yourself then you'll end up being a loser. So, better take any challenges as your stepping stone to become a better person. Have fun, explore and make a lot of memories.
