A Good New Year to all my good Friends!
The year ahead will bring its share of wars and rumours of war, destruction, floods, terrors, and woe. Hunger and thirst will rise and fall, nations will cry against nations, prices will rise, weight will increase, disease will remain. Murder, crime and corruption will continue. Life will proceed as it always has and will until the end of time.
However you and I can make our world a better place.
Where we are depends on us, not on the circumstances around us. These will often be awful and difficult to bear yet we can help one another to make life a little better by our response.
So let's ignore those problems we are not directly involved with, let us instead concentrate on what we can do to make a better world for ourselves and others.
You can do this if you choose to.
Anyway I'm glad I know you.

Well said.
We can, every day, every decision, choose how we live our lives, how we impinge on the people around us.
The simplest little things, that cost us nothing, can improve other people's days. Like being polite, thanking people, smiling, being patient. Treat people as you would like to be treated.
As you say, most of us can't influence the big things, but, over the year ahead, we can each do an awful lot of small things.
Happy New Year.
Happy New year to you
I hope that you continue in your wonderful and unique perspective of life.
And:
May the Lord bless you and protect you.
May the Lord smile on you and be gracious to you.
May the Lord show you his favor and give you his peace.
Happy New Year
Alan
I think I might have to keep coming back to your words here, Adullamite. There are times, far too often, that I become burdened, distressed, frustrated and angered by what goes on in this world of ours.
I'm glad I know you, too! Best thought!
Soub, Yes indeed! All the best with that.
Mametz, Thank you. I like that.
Lee, The world never changes, but we can.
It can work in two directions...be kind to people and animals and be very critical of institutions before following their instructions.
Fly, Indeed.
