Hello Everyone:

Happy New Year! A new year, a new decade. 2020. A new start to make lasting and memorable memories with all the ones we love and cherish. Like Janus – keeping one face looking at the past while the other looks towards the future.

This past month I have spent a lot of time with my family. My Dad turned 80 and 14 of us went on a family cruise to western Mexico on the Royal Princess to celebrate his milestone. The opportunity also allowed me to spend extra time with my sister, and allowed me to have a lovely visit with my god-parents and god-sister who I haven’t seen in quite some time. I saw many good friends leading up to the holidays and spent Christmas Eve & Christmas with my own and extended families. New Year’s Eve with my siblings and my Mom. Something I haven’t done in a while and New Year’s Day with the “Princess Crew” – my Dad and siblings.

Just as the clock struck twelve and 2020 was about to begin, I said a little prayer. Wishing for good health, love and happiness to all I hold dear in my heart. And thankful for being so blessed by having so many wonderful and special connections with all my family and friends. Relationships. What will get you through anything. Good friends make the good times better and the hard times easier. When friends support each other, incredible things happen. So I have concluded that: Friendship is my favourite form of therapy.

Although we are not all in the same city – – Time and distance are human constructs, love knows no bounds.

I always say that I have a lot of love in my life. I never feel alone or lonely – even when I am on my own. I am lucky. I am content. I am comfortable in my own skin and with my life. For 2020 – the year of new vision – and perfect eye-sight – I wish us all good health and true love.

HUGS and LOVE!! Winnie, The Warrior. xoxo
