Happy New Year

A New Year Wish

Life is like a game
played slowly, wisely, beautifully

where every move is a chance

to dream a little deeper,

to laugh a little louder,

to wander wherever the heart still whispers go.

To win, we dream

and let the days carry us,

like leaves drifting on a friendly river,

trusting the bends,

trusting the current,

trusting ourselves.

We dream

and resist everything to the contrary

the doubts, the heaviness,

the voices that say “not now” or “not you.”

For every season of life

still holds a quiet spark,

waiting to rise.

So here’s to new beginnings

the kind that arrive gently,

like morning light through a winter window.

Here’s to old friends

steady hands, familiar smiles,

companions on the long, lovely road.

And here’s to the endless possibilities

that lie ahead,

still shimmering, still calling,

still ours.

Happy New Year

may it be bright, kind,

and filled with dreams that carry you forward.

I served as a teacher, a teacher on Call, a Department Head, a District Curriculum, Specialist, a Program Coordinator, and a Provincial Curriculum Coordinator over a forty year career. In addition, I was the Department Head for Curriculum and Instruction, as well as a professor both online and in person at the University of Phoenix (Canada) from 2000-2010.

I also worked with Special Needs students. I gave workshops on curriculum development and staff training before I fully retired
