This past week I have visited a number of my favorite blogs and read some beautifully thoughtful reflections of 2008. I'm touched by what people choose to share; inspired, too.
Since I haven't quite gotten over my whole non-holiday-spirit, I feel like my reflections might be a bit tainted right now; rather than wallow, I'd prefer to offer ...
Wishes for 2009
May we live honestly & wholeheartedly
May we be wise enough to recognize what's truly important
May we dare to try new things (even if some may scare us a little ... or a lot)
May we be well & healthy in body, mind and spirit
May we suffer bouts of spontaneous dancing (and/or singing)
May we be open to (and accepting of) our highest potentials
May we share ourselves without fear
May we practice kindness, until practice becomes habit
and habit becomes as natural as breathing
May kindness continue to be contagious
May we be treated to lots of gut splitting laughter & silly little fits of giggles
May we accept others for exactly who they are and not what we expect them to be
May we be inspired
and touched by magic
May we experience 10,000+ moments of happiness
May we all find peace in our hearts, our homes & our universal community
With love,
Michelle

I love your 2009 list! I already do random bouts of singing & dancing. I can't hold a tune/note. I sing because I wanna! LaLalaLa and my family still loves me, my dogs don't care and my house is still standing! tee hee!
I wish you a fabulous Happy New Years!

This is one of the best list of wishes I've ever seen! You are so right about habit. It becomes a habit and becomes a part of your being. Kindness works wonders!!
what a lovely list, uplifting.
Bouts of spontaneous silliness is good too. Thankyou for getting it down so succinctly.
What a wonderful list! I'll do my best to keep up with you although my singing and dancing leave much to be desired! I can handle the silly little fits of giggles since I do that all the time. I think we can make 2009 simply fantastic!
Happy New Year!!!
May your wishes come true.
Happy New year

That is a fantastic wish list!! Now I'm going to post my own! Happy 2009!!
This is such a wonderful list...and since I too was in that non-spirit kind of mood, I'm going to print this out and put in on my fridge...you know..as a reminder!!
Have a wonderful New year!!

Amen, sister! I especially like the one about suffering spontaneous bouts of dancing.
Happy New year, Michelle. It's OK to have non-holiday feelings you know - they'll probably appear when you need them most, like around tax time!
Hugs,

Hi there. I stumbled upon your blog through another we have in common.
If you get a chance check out Robot Nine, today I posted Mark Khaiman and his cool art made of packing tape on plexiglass. Unbelievable, lots of positive comments already.
