Happy New Year!

a-happy-new-year


“I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes.   

Because if you are making mistakes, then you are making new things, trying new things, learning, living, pushing yourself, changing yourself, changing your world.  

You're doing things you've never done before, and more importantly, you're Doing Something.

So that's my wish for you, and all of us, and my wish for myself. 

Make New Mistakes. 

Make glorious, amazing mistakes. 

Make mistakes nobody's ever made before. 

Don't freeze, don't stop, don't worry that it isn't good enough, or it isn't perfect, whatever it is: art, or love, or work or family or life.

Whatever it is you're scared of doing, Do it.

Make your mistakes, next year and forever.”

  2. I love this....I believe that is how we learn and grow! What is the point of being perfect, how boring!

    The picture is so lovely!

    1. Thank you Roz - As they were growing up, I kept telling my boys - learn from my mistakes and make new ones so we can all learn something new. LOL

      Glad you like the pics - I do like sparkly things. ;)

      Wishing you and Rick every blessing and happiness in 2013.

  5. Happy New Years Cat!
    I guess the growth in mistakes makes me wonder if they were not mistakes in the first place? Humm, it made more sense in my head, but I'm running on empty here! LOL

    I seem to make a lot of mistakes, but I do seem to learn something along the way!
    I hope we can all find the growth in whatever mistakes happen in 2013.

    Well, you don't have to worry about me.
    I'll make lots of mistakes. Old mistakes, new mistakes, small mistakes and gloriously big mistakes, I'll make them all.

  8. Well let me tell you, all your hopes have already come true. I have probably already made at least three mistakes today. Lol. I don't know if I will ever learn from some of my mistakes. Okay, so they are probably not the mistakes you are talking about....
    Happy New Year, Cat
