ABC Wednesday - Round 24 begins!




We are now starting Round 24!  A new year and a new round.

This round I plan to focus on actions that can be taken to make this the best year ever, and will use a journal to create a page of quotes.

A is for A new year. 2019 has the potential to be a turbulent year, carrying on from the upheaval and discord that has spread like a cancer around the world;
-where a U.S. president is under intense FBI scrutiny and lies repeatedly
-where populism and white supremacy is exploding, world-wide
-where racism has reared its ugly head
-where even schools and churches are no longer safe from gun violence.

But we do not have to succumb or surrender to the hate and negativity of last year.
We need to act.
We need positive, assertive actions and attitudes to push back that negativity.

Yes. It is A NEW YEAR. A year
- to take action
-to adjust attitudes
-to assert positive affirmations.

Make 2019 your best year yet.





Be sure to check here to wee what others around the world did for A.

Indeed, we need to act accordingly and not let the past ruin the future... A bad past is an experience and a good one a memory. Happy new year to you.
