Hello to a new year that will
allow for whatever a
person or other
people that
yearn for
Nothing but for being a more
earnest and
well-meaning person
Yet
expecting that there may be
allowances made
regarding some of the choices that you and others may make in this
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!

Jimmy Carter
Just read that President Jimmy Carter has died at 100 years of age. He was a man of integrity and caring and the smile that would not quit. He was an American serviceman to politician to farmer for his life has run the gambit of professions in one way. He was a humanitarian volunteer constructing homes for whomever may need. Jimmy Carter and his wife are now together again just smiling away and waving to all from their new home in the sky the greatest habitat for humanity that there could ever be for anyone and everyone who so lives.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

Well-wrought, Mark! Anywhere I see people making an earnest effort to be a better person, I see beauty! Happy New Year!
This poem beautifully captures the hopeful yet humble spirit of a new year. It's a reminder that, while we may strive to be more earnest and well-meaning, we are all human, and some imperfections or missteps are inevitable. The acknowledgement that "allowances may be made" brings a sense of grace, both for ourselves and others, as we move into the year ahead. It’s a hopeful wish for growth, kindness, and understanding—both personal and collective. A very heartfelt and positive way to greet the new year!!!
New Happy Year Mark Graham
