What are your wishes for the new year?
May this year be filled with blessing and grace. And may we all get our heart desires. I pray that we may feel the brightness and awesomeness of each day and that we may all be grateful.
I wish that when opportunity comes we may be able to recognize and grab it. Opportunity to serve, to teach, to advance ourselves, to listen, to be heard, to learn, to encourage, to correct, to inspire, to love, to be loved.
Have a peaceful new year you all.
