2012...What will your bookends look like?

A friend of mine completed "photo a day" in 2011.  He ended his challenge with a picture similar to the picture that launched his challenge - a photo of his precious children asleep before midnight on New Year's Eve.  Simple.  Understated.  A quiet end to a good year.  But I had to go back to the first picture.  His children have grown tremendously.  His daughter has undergone eye surgery.  His son started school.  Though so incredibly similar, the photos serve a beautiful bookends to some tremendous milestones...and it got me thinking...

What will my bookends look like?  I've launched a new chapter in my career and know that 2012 will be full of "firsts" just like a child's first few years.  Of course, I have goals to I plan to reach (and hopefully surpass) but something tells me that this is my year of unkowns...twists in my road of life that I don't see coming.  I am prepared as I will ever be...I mean how prepared can you be for the unexpected, right?  I am excited because I know that each day will hold something for me to unwrap...and who doesn't love a gift? Most importantly, I am supported by co-workers, colleagues, friends and family who I know will see me through every twist and turn and be there to celebrate my successes. 

I am holding the first bookend.  It's the first picture in my own 365 day challenge.  There will be many titles, stories, photos, chapters and books between now and December 31, 2012 some of which I will write, others that I will read.  I will be anxious to see what the other bookend looks like.  And I am excited to share and learn from each of you in my journey to find it!
