The object of a New Year is not that we should have a new year.
It is that we should have a new soul and a new nose;
new feet, a new backbone, new ears, and new eyes.
Unless a particular man made New Year resolutions, he would make no resolutions.
Unless a man starts afresh about things, he will certainly do nothing effective.
Gilbert K. Chesterton
In the spirit of starting fresh, I set about ordering my workshop, a tiny little gem of a room tucked away in the corner of the basement. My poor little sanctuary had suffered mightily from Halloween to Christmas. I am way better at planning, creating, and doing, than I am at cleaning up afterwards. It was way past time to clean, organize and purge. The results were even better than I imagined. I now look for reasons to head to the workshop.
Starting afresh in the workshop has already given me inspiration for 2017.
More to come as inspiration progresses.
