I hope all your dreams for 2011 are realized - and that you are free to explore each one. Sometimes, not always, but sometimes, we have to adjust our dreams to fit our realities. May all your adjustments be minor. :-)

Serenity
2011!! I have been wrestling with what to change, do better, plan for, reach some goal, and so forth. It came to me today that I don't really need to wrestle with anything - my hope is that we maintain our status on many levels - on the home front? life is loving, peaceful, bountiful, with many blessings. We live within our means and share our bounty. The challenges we faced were many and we fought for good outcomes. Perhaps the balance of so many blessings gave us the strength we needed. I had some setbacks with the MS and did what I had to do to strengthen and keep moving. The fall we took in August was life-changing. We are stronger now.
So for 2011 I hope to continue managing, living, - no big goals or expectations beyond celebrating our freedoms and blessings we are so fortunate to have. I have learned to adjust - accept - and shine the serenity prayer to what life hands us.
I hope all your dreams for 2011 are realized - and that you are free to explore each one. Sometimes, not always, but sometimes, we have to adjust our dreams to fit our realities. May all your adjustments be minor. :-)

' So wonderful of you to acknowledge your many good fortunes along with some of the not so fortunate in your life.
I think it is such a Blessing when we can appreciate the balance in our lives.
Reading here I always see that your attitude is that of the glass is half-full and never half-empty.
Peace and joy to you, Gail!
Love to you,

Life is not defined by your circumstances, but rather by your spirit. The year ahead is yours to embrace just as you've always done…with the passion and joy, and indomitable courage and heart, of the Gail we all know and love.
Every day ahead holds wonder—love and live it for all it's worth!
GRIZZ-
I am blushing, just a little as I am humbled by your experience of me -
I will take on 2011 with all its glory and challenge - and remember as I start each day, with a mug of coffee watching the birds happily feed right out my window how truly blessed I am. You make my heart sing :-)
Love Gail
peace.....
EILEEN-
I learned some time ago that balance is the key - and that each experience is as it should be regardless of the content - oh I stutter and stammer a few "why me's" and then I get down to the business of acceptance to surrender. You are so beautiful.
Love Gail
peace.....

Dear Gail,
I love the serenity prayer but find myself so often lacking in the serenity it takes to say it!
Thank you so much for all your support and inspiration this year.
I wish you so much happiness and strength for this coming year. I love it that you just simply want to be able to carry on shining that prayer. That's the best resolution I've heard.
