this year: TwentyTen

 When I think about the year Twenty-Ten, 

I am not sure where to begin.

 The blessings abound, my life filling, 

a taste of what is to come, the Lord willing.

2010 resolutions, some fulfilled, some failed.

But through it all, I am uplifted and held -

in the precious, loving care

of the One who my burdens will bear.

Broken pieces of my heart, no longer shattered, 

but healing God did impart to my soul, long battered.

A heart of thankfulness, eyes that well with gratitude and love,

God truly sent me eternal gifts and promises from above.

A year of change, a year of hope,

though at times, I felt at the end of my rope.

Emotions stretched thin, nights too short,

but happiness is still my report.

I am blessed, not bragging -

Just a journal, and memories blogging.

Not higher or better than anyone else -

Just analyzing myself. 

Another good year is my wish, my prayer -

 Not a random life of here and there.

A focused purpose, a destination in mind -

a treasure I hope to hold, to find.

The countdown is on - 2011's life tapestry to weave.

So here is to you - Happy New Year's Eve!
