Happy New Year! 2009!



This was the firework display that took place practically in our backyard. Our wealthy neighbors blow up their money, and we get to enjoy it all! It’s really nice! At the very end of the video you’ll see some green sparks fly past. Somebody sent a firework shooting into our yard, and it just barely missed me. People go crazy here when it’s New Years. You just can’t get the whole effect with a camera. The noise was so loud I could feel the vibrations through my body. It’s actually pretty neat. It makes the New Year seem special!

Happy New Year!
God bless in 2009!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I am the new year. I am an unspoiled page in your book of time.

I am your next chance at the art of living. I am your opportunity to practice what you have learned about life during the last twelve months.

All that you sought and didn’t find is hidden in me, waiting for you to search it but with more determination.

All the good that you tried for and didn’t achieve is mine to grant when you have fewer conflicting desires.

All that you dreamed but didn’t dare to do, all that you hoped but did not will, all the faith that you claimed but did not have—these slumber lightly, waiting to be awakened by the touch of a strong purpose.

I am your opportunity to renew your allegiance to Him who said, "Behold, I make all things new."
