Layin Low and Regoupin….

December 31, 2011 by fpdorchak

I have been layin’ low and regroupin’ this “Holiday Season,” as I like to call it. And it’s been nice. Been visiting with family, doing some reading and a little writing (sorry, no blog posting), following some writer group loop postings, but not much else…just a general all-around kickin’ back.  Always on the move, always go-go-GOING, it felt great takin’ it easy (at least what I call “takin’ it easy”). Can’t believe how dang fast the year has flown past.

So, one door closes and another is opening. Kinda cool how that happens, huh? Out with the old, yadda x 3. Things are always changing and moving on. Replenishing themselves. There is constant rebirth all around us. Within us. As I frequently like to say, life is what we all make of it, and for this coming 2012 I’d like all of us to make the most of it and not fall prey to all the media hype about Mayans or approaching planets or any other end-of-world scenario…and chose to enjoy our lives as only each of us knows how to do. But more so, I challenge each of us out there to BELIEVE in ourselves. We all have value, and we all contribute to the world. Make no mistake about this.

We all count.

Make your life count by chosing a more positive experience for yourself…which in turn benefits Humanity, because you are part of a whole, and a whole is greater than the sum of its parts (yeah, it’s the “new math”). What you do, what we think–what we all do and think–affects us all. So, make the best of your life, live with a positive attitude, focus on your positive goals, smile, be happy, and greet life with vigor!

Now, I got a bunch of Twilight Zones to record….

Happy 2012, everybody!

    GREAT THOUGHTS, MUST TRY TO REMEMBER ALL THIS IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY, COMPLICATED LIFE. BUT YOU ARE RIGHT FRANK. Love to all in the New Year…even if the Mayans are working against us. Karen

      Yeah, sometimes, I have to pause during my day and tell myself “Be nice!” It always calms me down and puts me in a better place.

      Thanks for stoppin by, Karen! And our New Year’s Best best to you and yours, aussi!

    I’ve been doing the same thing and enjoying every minute of it. Regrouping is good.
