A new year can bring so many hopes, aspirations and fears. This year I am looking forward to so many things. With the completion of my second CD and the prospect of yet another trip the Scotland in 2011, I have a lot to look forward too. Yet it is so very difficult to enjoy my blessings when so many around me are struggling just to survive. The destruction in Haiti has really saddened my heart and like many of us, I am doing whatever I can to aid those unfortunate people. It amases me how your perception of self loss and discomfort can change so drastically if you just take the time to see life from others perspectives. It is my hope and prayer that we do not forget these people when the cameras are gone and we are back to feeling our own personal struggles. With the dawning of a new day we can experience so much. May the Lord bless you with a year full of beautiful sunrises and days filled with joy and laughter.
