WHERE DO BEGINNINGS BEGIN?????.......................

 

NEW BEGINNINGS CAN OFTEN BE SHADOWY...

UNCERTAIN...

FRIGHTENING.....



TO MAKE GAINS IN THIS LIFE WE MUST 

VENTURE FORTH.......

TO NEW PLACES....

MEET NEW PEOPLE.....

EXPERIENCE NEW IDEAS.....



   

WITHOUT NEW BEGINNINGS WE ARE UNABLE TO FULFILL THE PURPOSE FOR OUR LIVES.

ARE YOU BEGINNING A NEW BEGINNING?????

    Oh my the roads are breathtaking!! I would drive 25 miles an hour over those roads to enjoy every suttle and not so suttle rise & fall. Some days, I start new every other minute. :) Hugs. Tazzy

    Wonderfully insightful post, Jo. I love the images. I hope I embrace new beginnings, I am trying. Let go of old fears is hard but you can do it if you try.

    Every morning is a new beginning. A fresh start to get things right, to not go back, to live life to the fullest and to trust God to show us what is good .

    HA! That's putting it mildly in my case..

    I hope you're having a wonderful time driving on all the fun roads. My tummy's still queasy from the one that looks like old Christmas Ribbon Candy :)

    This post summoned up my entire life. Yes Jo my husband and i have stepped forth on a complete new beginning. Scary at hell to me especially since i have stepped way out of my comfort zone! Some days i say to my hubby I cannot do this! But i keep venturing forth with all my prayers tucked inside.
    Thanks for a lovely encouraging post...I needed that!

    Hi Jo, thanks for stopping by my wacky deer in the closet post!! Your thoughts on new beginnings were so well written. I've come across some times in my life when I've been drawn to a new beginning and it's funny how some friends were not so supportive, or understanding. I think new beginnings scare people, and they have a hard time accepting them for anyone. Maybe they feel they'll be left behind, or that people will change. My reasons for beginning something new was to always enhance my experiences in life, therefore enhancing the lives of those around me. Ciao, bella!

TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY......I'M GOING TO HAVE A WONDERFUL BIRTHDAY MONTH!!!

I turn 67 today.....and actually I feel better as the years accumulate.  Since I've gotten older I actually have decided that I will celebrate each day during the month of October...just being grateful for being healthy and alive.   I hope each one of you who follow this little blog of mine celebrate each day along with me.... Here are some of the things I have planned for my birthday month: 1.  Listing our current home the end of the first week in November.  We are pretty excited to be moving into a little smaller spot as it means less work and maintenance.  We just want to be able to live more and work less.  Although we still have not found our new spot.....we know it is out there.   2.  Taking a 15 day cruise on the Rhine from Amsterdam to Budapest.  We will visit 5 countries along the way.  One of the stops will be in the place I was born....Nuremberg, Germany.  My  family  left Germany right...

" I AM ROOTED....BUT I FLOW". Virginia Woolf

2020..can you believe it?  With each passing year I am more amazed that I am still here.   Both my parent's died very young and if genetics prove correct sometimes one can have the same fate.  Anyway....I digress. At the beginning of each new year I always find myself wondering what this particular year has in store.  With advanced age you can almost always depend on little surprises here and there.  Your life can be bumping along and then suddenly everything changes in the blink of an eye.  Your health changes, your finances change, family troubles, death of loved ones...the list goes on and on. Instead of making any resolutions for this upcoming year....I have promised myself that I will embrace any and all change with thoughtful consideration.  No panic attacks, no jumping into immediate action, no needless worrying about things I cannot control. I know that is a tall order because being human we...
