Amy: *hugs* Thanks, my friend, and the same to you. This past week or so I've gone from being all "Ugh, I want this year to be over, life can't get worse than it did in 2011" to thinking that actually, if things were exactly the same one year from now it would be no terrible thing. I really need a job, sure, but then again I'm also healthy and have somewhere to live, and everyone I love is safe and sound and near me. I had a rough year, but there are much worse things in life than the ones I had to deal with. And with this I conclude the longest, most rambling comment you didn't really bargain for ever :P
Happy New Year Ana! I hope that this is the year when everything falls into place for you, all the puzzle pieces. Great Gaiman link, I'll have to use it too!
Happy New Year Ana! Funny, yesterday I scheduled a post to go up on New Year's Eve and I used the Gaiman poster too! We both have a weakness for that man's words. Have a wonderful weekend!
Have a safe and Happy New Year to you as well! Here's to another reading and blogging year in 2012, and I'm so thankful that I came across your blog in 2010/11.
Love Neil Gaiman... And I loved his wishes for 2012:
"I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes.
Because if you are making mistakes, then you are making new things, trying new things, learning, living, pushing yourself, changing yourself, changing your world. You're doing things you've never done before, and more importantly, you're Doing Something.
So that's my wish for you, and all of us, and my wish for myself. Make New Mistakes. Make glorious, amazing mistakes. Make mistakes nobody's ever made before. Don't freeze, don't stop, don't worry that it isn't good enough, or it isn't perfect, whatever it is: art, or love, or work or family or life.
Happy New Year dearest Ana! I hope this year brings you all the joy!
