Anticipation - Looking forward 2010

Happy Aquarium? Huh? What does this have to do with anticipation?

The Merriam-Webster Dictionary lists several meanings for the word anticipation. The one to which I an referring is 1 B: The act of looking forward; especially pleasurable expectation, and I do look forward to 2010 with many pleasurable expectations.

Now, what does this have to do with Happy Aquarium on Facebook? Well, I look forward to achieving a new level tomorrow in Happy Aquarium. Pleasurable? Yes. Important. No, not to anyone other than me.

As we "anticipate" the year, 2010, what do you look forward to accomplishing? Do your anticipated accomplishments need to be major or life changing? What are your goals and expectations for 2010? Will all of your goals and expecations be pleasurable? Do they have to be pleasurable?

Tomorrow I will answer those questions for me. I plan to set new goals I hope to achieve in the year 2010. I also "anticipate" advancing from level 35 to level 36 in Happy Aquarium. Pleasure, yes, a bit. Fun, yes a bit. Hopefully, life will cooperate with me. I look forward to the last day of 2009.

Eye m Looking Forward to a Brand New Year

Yes, Eye M looking forward to the New Year. I honestly don't want to look back. 2008 wasn't a bad year. It presented itself with many challenges. I don't regret the challenges. I'm just tired of them. 2008 also brought a lot of joy. I think of the memories and smile. The history, to me, is not important. The results are what matters. What are the results of the joys and challenges?
1) I'm stronger now than I was at the beginning of 2008.
2) I've learned some valuable lessons.
3) My dear doggie friend, Spike, is still with me.
4) I love my children more now than yesterday.
5) Hope is a word in my vocabulary.
6) I'm never bored!
7) We are on the down side of winter and headed towards spring.
8) I have some wonderful friends.
9) I've learned that there is justice in the world.
10) I've learned that I am truly blessed!

I make no resolutions. I hope that I can have a positive influence in my world. I hope that I can give love, even to the most difficult to love. I hope that I can forgive. I hope that I can pray.

We are only a few hours away from the New Year. I wish for you these blessings.

May the peace of God be with each of you! May you be blessed in abundance with love, family, and friends. May your health be good and remain good. May you find peace, love, and joy each and everyday of your life. May you blossom and continue to show your goodness to the world. May you be the instrument of change for the better of this world. May you sleep well at night.
Last, but not least, may your hangers not shrink your clothes!

Happy 2009!!!!
