Going Into a New Year...

Going into this new year full of possibilities, these words from Walt Whitman's "Song of Myself" came to mind:

I exist as I am, that is enough.

If no other in the world be aware as I sit content,

And if each and all be aware I sit content...

One world is aware, and by far the largest to me,

and that is myself...

And whether I come to my own today or in ten thousand

or ten million years,

I can cheerfully take it now, or with equal cheerfulness,

I can wait.

A very happy New Year's to you and yours...

Thank you very much!

I FINALLY got around to spending my Nicky Ree gift certificates from my Rez Day last February (*gasp*). It is her Tang Empress gown in Violet and a truly beautifully textured piece.
