Resolutions

0102_tulip.jpg

The tulips mpo gave me for our anniversary are past their prime, so I thought I had better snap a few pictures before it is too late.
Strange, but I never got into the habit of making New Year's resolutions. It wasn't something my parents did even though it was not uncommon where I grew up.

Anan over at ...and then there was the time... posted excellent advice to resolve old grievances and making new starts. This is part of her ongoing series of good deeds, little snippets of ideas of everyday things one can do to make life a little better for others.

If Anan looks at ways to resolve past grievances and starting with a clean slate, Judy Anne over at widow shmidow looks at ways to prevent grievances from arising in the first place, in her end of year thoughts.


In a way I guess you could say, Anan looks at resolution of the past, and Judy Anne looks at resolution for the future. Both equally necessary, and both engaging us fully in the present.

Peace to you and yours.

Nini:

This is one of the most stunning pictures that you have ever taken. It makes my imagination go in ten different directions almost simultaneously. The first that came to mind was those Whirling Dervishes, in the white robes that just keep on twirling and twirling. I also have to admit that it made me think of the infamous photo of MM with the white dress blowing up. You really have the most awesome eye for photos.
