To find beauty in everyone you must see beauty
in everyone, then announce that you see it for, in announcing it,
you place it there in their reality.

NEW YEARS POEMS: “This Year Is Yours” by Alfred Lord Tennyson
This Year Is Yours God built and launched this year for you; Upon the bridge you stand; It’s your ship, aye, your own ship, And you are in command. Just what the twelve months’ trip will do Rests wholly, solely, friend, with you. Your logbook kept from day to day My friend, what…
