nyeWishing everyone a magical night tonight, as we farewell the old year, and all the good, bad and strange we’ve been through, and welcome in a new one.

I am grateful for a magical 2015 – for the good things and the bad things, the new friends and the lost friends, the successes and the struggles, the inspiration and the exhaustion…

It’s strange… Technically it’s no different today than yesterday – Chinese New Year is far more meaningful energetically, being celebrated on the spring new moon (albeit the northern hemisphere spring) – and yet there is still the energy of stepping through a doorway, of releasing the year that has gone and welcoming the grand potential and promise of a new one, of being grateful for love deepened and dreams lived and friendships made and goals achieved and lessons learned and wisdom gained… and even the less-than-stellar moments of dreams frustrated and loss felt and pain suffered. It’s all part of the magic and wonder and adventure of life…

May 2016 be filled with love and joy and enchantment, and passion and dedication and inspiration, and may you fight to make your dreams come true.
