I spent a lot of today thinking how to incorporate my New Year's theme into my day to day life. Too many "things" kept swirling around in my mind and became very overwhelming. The problem with New Years and the feeling or need to completely change yourself, your life, your habits is its too much at once. Its taken me 47 years to become the person I am today and if I want to change that, it certainly isn't going to happen the first week of 2011. What popped into my head and has been swimming around in there all day long is part of a wonderful song from the "Sound of Music":
"Let's start at the very beginning
A very good place to start
When you read you begin with
ABC
When you sing you begin with do re mi"
It occurred to me, that's the answer. Start at the beginning. So that's what I'm going to try to do.
