2025…..’5 Timely New Year’s Resolutions’…An Idea….Ness ’24……  

by Bernie Bell - 08:42 on 01 January 2025

 

2025….

 

I intend to walk up to the door to the new year, open it, stand on the threshold, take a deep breath and walk on with the intention of facing and overcoming challenges as best I can.

 

Not so much a  New Year’s Resolution, as a life-time resolution.

 

 

'5 Timely New Year’s Resolutions’……

 

Time is the fire in which we burn. ~Delmore Schwartz

 

No more seizing the day.
It doesn't want my sweaty grope.

I'll let time fly
like a buzzard overhead.

I'll walk around wearing
not a stitch in nine.

I'll watch more pots
to prevent their boil.

If time is the fire in which we burn,
pass the marshmallows. 

(Happy New Year!)

An Idea….

 

At the beginning of 2021 – which didn’t look like being a comfortable year to be in – Mike decided to take a pic of something positive each day.

 

He then made them into a little film and posted it on Youtube.

 

There’s usually something in any day – however small a thing – something.

 

Here’s the film……

Ness ’24……

 

I can’t say Good-bye to 2024 without a post about the Ness of Brodgar….
