Ah, New Years, that arbitrary line in the sand is upon us. It's the time when one year flows into the next. Some of you will be out celebrating, others will be at home celebrating, some will be asleep, some will be trying to get to sleep, some will be playing World of Warcraft, while many others might not be fully aware of where they are and what they are doing when the clock strikes 12.
However and wherever you may be, have a safe and happy one, and lets all make 2012 a great year.
Great post! Puts all into perspective when we see that inconsequential dot in the cosmos. Reminds us of these words: 'this little life shall pass, and we are gone'. Let's all be the best we can be, while looking excitedly forward. After all, looking back just causes neck strain! Best to you.
Malcolm--Great way to end and begin the year! Thanks for Carl Sagan's commentary. I would call it a Sunbeam in the Galaxy.
Happy New Year!
Ed and Tracy, great words of wisdom, and certainly something to think about.
Mary, Sunbeam in the galaxy is very appropriate.
Happy new year, all the best for 2012.
"A mode of dust, suspended in a sunbeam"... Wow, kind of makes you sit up and take note. And here I thought I was the centre of the universe. Have a great New Year, Malcolm.
All the best for a sparkling 2012 Malcolm that brings happiness and much success!
Malcolm - What a touching reminder we are but minute specks of cosmic dust in the Universe--very humbling and a wonderful way to put things in perspective as we begin a new year.

From Our House To Yours - Happy New Year
In 2012 I would Challenge each and everyone to reach out and touch someone be it as close as a neighbour going through a hard time to some one half way around the world. It does not matter if you donate to a local food bank, or travel halfway around the world to offer aid or assistance. If we all did Just One Thing To Make Someones New Year A Little Better A Little Brighter the world would be better for it and so would we. In today's global world with its instant communication of disaster and distress how can we not reach out.
Make This A Happy New Year For Someone Else.
Sally, you mean to say that you're not the centre of the universe?
Al and Peggy, all the best for 2012 also.
Norma, it's hard to be humble, but sometimes we must be.
Kathy, you are right. If more people tried to do a few little things, the impact would be tremendous.
Debra, happy new year to you as well.
Sheila, lets hope 2012 is great for everybody!!
