Happy New Year!

Happy new year, everyone!

It's going to be really weird not blogging every day, so I wanted to take this chance to wish you all a blessed new year, and to give you an update on why I can't blog every day this year.

I'm starting school again. I'm going for my Master's degree this time. In Library Science. I'm super excited!

I'll still be reading my Bible every day, since it has become such an essential part of not only my mornings but also my life. And this year, I'm starting with the psalms. I usually try to read the psalms at least once a year, since Psalms, along with Proverbs, are my two favorite books of the Bible.

This year I'm doing it a little differently though. I'm going to read one psalm a week so that I can begin to memorize them, and really let the meaning sink in. I'm not sure how effective that will be, and I may try to keep you updated, but I also may not have time to post much with the demands of classes.

So, I just wanted to give you a quick update for the new year.

If there is anything you would like to see me blog about, or anything you would like me to research and discuss, please leave a comment below. I will make a note so that I can come back to the topic when I have time.

Happy New Year! Stay safe, everyone!

New Year 2015

Happy new year! I'm so excited to start 2015. Each year brings a plethora of new choices, new adventures, and new opportunities; each one is a chance for new happiness, and changes.

I can't wait to see what 2015 will bring. I hope it brings much happiness, lots of fun, many blessings, new opportunities to serve and learn about God, and chances to make people smile.

Today I read a great quote that I love even more every time I see it. "Tomorrow is the first blank page of a 365 page book. Write a good one."

I rarely make resolutions, and when I do, I always break them. Usually, they're something like "Lose weight," or "Watch less TV." So, this year, I wanted to make resolutions that really fit me, ones I can keep.

My five resolutions for 2015 are:

  1. Be happy
  2. Be healthy
  3. Be positive
  4. Help others
  5. Say yes
These are ranked in order of their importance. "Say yes" is number 5 because even though I want to start saying yes to more things, and have new adventures and experiences, I don't want to say yes to something that would conflict with the other resolutions.

What are your resolutions for this year?

What do you hope to write in your 2015 story?
