Looking back over 2010, so many wonderful things happened. So many sweet and dear memories were made, and yet, there are some dark shadows. Matters of the heart. In the end we will all wish we'd made more time for those we treasure. We'll all wish we'd made amends with those we've felt slighted by or were offended by.
Eventually, I'll get around to typing up our resolutions but today....today I just have a thought (or maybe a challenge) to share.
Another year has come and gone
As quickly as night falls to dawn
I'm Looking back with wiser eyes
On lessons learned and stronger ties
I'm choosing love, that's really living
I'm letting go, and just forgiving
We've all been fools in word or deed
a shorter memory is what we need
So let's reach out this coming year
and those we've distanced, draw them near
Jesus forgave me, all my debts
I long to meet Him with no regrets
I'm going to practice "love is Blind"
not leave one kiss or hug behind
I'll work on saying "I was wrong"
and not hold grudges quite so long
Before I judge an imperfection
I'll just think back on my own reflection
Time travels fast, it will never stroll
It's time to give God back control
The love we share is a precious thing
So let's hug and kiss & let the new year ring.
