January 1st - a time to reflect on changes which have taken place during the past year, and things you might like to change in the coming year.
As individuals, there are things we can change, and others we can't. We can make deliberate and conscious choices. I chose to eat less and lose weight and feel healthier.
As humanity,there's a whole lot we need to change. Seems there was a collective failure of will at Copenhagen. Let's see if we can do better in 2010. Individual effort may make individuals feel good about themselves, but it's not going to be enough to save the boat we're all in together!

ReplyDeleteCheers.

Well you'd be right there. Copenhagen was a massive disappointment to put it mildly. And yes we can all do something to help, even if it's saving water, not turning on all those lights etc.
ReplyDeleteLove the photo but where are you?!
Happy New Year to you and Piero and Ben, dear Sally.
Well said, Sally.
ReplyDeleteThat's an eye catching photo. Nice!
Yalla, let's go start making it a good year of positive change.
Great thoughts for the new year.
ReplyDeleteHoping for a better 2010 for all of us.
So ..... which part of you is in this photo? I see a blue heart, and I see your hand ... I'm curious about the rest -:)
and ... appropriately enough the word verification for this comment is "messes" . Go figure -:)
Good choice for you Sally :)
ReplyDeleteHappy new year 2010! and happy theme day :)
Happy New Year to you, Sally, may it bring you every change you wish for.
ReplyDeleteHeehee, and I thought it was some fancy water sculpture. ;) Cool shot!
ReplyDeleteMay 2010 be a better year for the world.
What a creative photo!
ReplyDeleteHi Sally, your photo and the explanation are very reflective. I like that it is a changed photo.
ReplyDeleteIn 2010 I hope that well all learn to love and respect the boat we are collectively in.
happy new years
Very creative photo and good sentiments for the new year. Let's hope we can get the governments to agree to do more for our "boat" and work on saving the planet for future generations.
ReplyDeleteBEautiful, Sally. Here's to a better world this year!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!
very creative photo with color and patterns and the changing water. great sentiments as well. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteVery eye-catching!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year!
Like the others, I thought it was some kind of sculpture, rather than your swimming cossie. You'll be growing flippers soon and we'll have to call you Miranda!
ReplyDeleteVery creative image and idea - "changing" the photo! And here's hoping that everyone will be able to "change" for the better this year.
