Happy New Year 2010


Rare New Year's Eve Blue Moon to ring in 2010!

Tonight is a blue moon - the second full moon in a calendar month. The last time a blue moon fell on New Year's Eve was December 31, 1990. (Alas, it might prove difficult since the skies might be cloudy.) The next time will be in 2028.







And I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year: Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown. And he replied: Go out into the darkness and put your hand into the hand of God. That shall be to you better than light, and safer than a known way.  - Minnie L. Haskins



We will open the book. Its pages are blank. We are going to put words on them ourselves. The book is called "Opportunity" and its first chapter is New Year's Day.  - Edith Lovejoy Pierce



Then sing, young hearts that are full of cheer,
With never a thought of sorrow;
The old goes out, but the glad young year
Comes merrily in tomorrow
- Emily Miller




Every new year people make resolutions to change aspects of themselves they believe are negative. A majority of people revert back to how they were before and feel like failures. This year I challenge you to a new resolution. I challenge you to just be yourself.  - Aisha Elderwyn

 
 
Glory to God in highest heaven,
Who unto man His Son hath given;
While angels sing with tender mirth,
A glad new year to all the earth
- Martin Luther
 
 
 
Be always at war with your vices, at peace with your neighbors, and let each New Year find you a better man.  - Benjamin Franklin


 
This bright new year is given me
To live each day with zest
To daily grow and try to be
My highest and my best!
- William Arthur Ward



It is difficult not to believe that the next year will be better than the old one! And this illusion is not wrong. Future is always good, no matter what happens. It will always give us what we need and what we want in secret. It will always bless us with right gifts. Thus in a deeper sense our belief in the New Year cannot deceive us.  - Kersti Bergroth

 
'til next time,

Con
