i'm a passenger
on the rolling wheels of this day
the last one of this year
and i'm entirely content
to see the world
through these rainy windows
tonight the old calendar will be taken down
and a new one put in its place
i'm good with
the extraordinary gifts and blessings
as well as the challenges
that have come to my place in this world
i'm good with it all
thankyou

A joyous new year to you and your family, Steven.
Sounds as though you are content to move forward in whatever way it comes, Steven, weatherwise that is. even through the rain splattered windows.
Happy New year. Here in Australia we're almost there.
I have just discovered your blog through Dulce ... and oh, it is so beautiful.
I shall be back in 2011 to indulge in your words and pictures1

Happiness to you and yours always.
hope thankyou very much. i'll be waving and smiling at that point in the evening. it's supposed to be raining here also. i always open the front door at midnight to let the old year go back in time and the new one to get a head start . . . i don't mind rain at all - in fact in the winter it's a treat for me! have a joyous and creative year coming. steven

Thank you for your amazing blog and for being alive at the same time I am. You're SWELL!Cheers!

Steven! It is a pleasure to visit here, to view and enjoy the photos, and to parse words so sparse...
Thank you also for your whole attitude and outlook on life, in those words: "I'm good with it all."
Sometimes--most of the time, I'm like that too.
Yo are so right, Steven, that being a a thankful heart brings with it a simple satisfaction.
Your new banner - I wanted to reach right into the screen and touch!
Warmest New Year's wishes to you and yours for much health and happiness!

tess thankyou for visiting here. i remember visiting "the manor" for the first time and being stunned at what was possible as a writer. i wish you goodness and joy and espcially that you can continue to tap the powerful river of creative energy that is sweeping you along to your rightful place!! steven
don carlo welcome and thankyou so much for your very kind comment. i feel very fortunate to have arrived at a place where despite the very real features of the life i lead i am able to accept and appreciate what i am given what i am drawn towards, and what i draw towards myself. happy new year! steven

linda sue i'm too bony and gristly to be you! i poke holes in cupboard with my hips! i like the space where we get to meet in the middle and i get to be inside your head for a bit. you're so extremely cool and clever and i love the way you see and share your world. i really do! no no be linda sue please. happy evening and then into the morning a happy good quiet beginning to a raucous new year. steven
hello dulce - an angel - well i've never been described that way. a first!
i've been gifted with great fortune - fortune which has looked a lot like suffering at times, like incredible gifts at others. to arrive at a place that allows me to say in all truth that i am good with that and to share that state with others including yourself is one of those gifts. i feel fortunate to have met you. there's a quality about your writing and about the energy drawn towards your writing that i like to be near. i wish you a joyous, creative, challenging and fulfilling new year. steven
:))))
Happy New year to you and your family, Steven. (hugs)
linda thankyou so much!! i wish you a year of discovery and happiness. steven
