Happy 2012

1 Jan

I don’t do New Year resolutions.  If there is something I want to improve or change in life, I don’t see the logic in only making that commitment once a year.  Surely self improvement is an ongoing issue.  I don’t do Valentine;s Day for the same reason.  Shouldn’t you show someone you care every time you interact with them?  It’s a commercialised event to prey on everyone’s guilt for not expressing themselves through out the year.  Jewellers and florists must love it!

New Year’s is a good time to reflect though and I, for one, am going to be thankful for family in light of the recent fire.  While they have lost their home that they invested considerable time and money in, which no doubt also held many memories.  Imagine if the kids and mum had been home?  Makes you realise what is truly important.  Bluffies have rallied around and I’m told they have enough clothes for the kids and are fortunate to have a close knit family to support them.  Good luck and remember I have a house there if you need it.

Happy New Year!
