The Shutter Sisters had an interesting post today about finding your mantra for the new year. Last night while reading Coen his bedtime story, one of the lines really stuck out to me. So this is my mantra for the new year…
No matter if they stop and stare,
no person
ever
anywhere
can make me feel that what they see
is all there really is to me.
**from “I like myself!” by Karen Beaumont.
I have a really good feeling about this year…
Something Cheeky

May your good feeling lead to excellent outcomes. 🙂 After the financial disastrous ending of last year I’d like to say 2009 has got to be better one way or another.
Great profile shot.
