2007 Meditations

This weekend we continued painting and putting in new flooring in the living room and office. We're almost done with our project, and then we'll return books to shelves and rearrange all the funtiure.

We have enjoyed attacking various tasks and projects around our home through our own physical labor, as a farmer would take satisfaction of tending to the needs of their own land. We feel one with our land when we personally tend to the needs of our home, our finances, our lives.

These accomplishments have especially been key for our newlywed years. In these 5 little years we have faced so much and have applied ourselves to so much.

We're definitely not ones to make New Year's resolutions once a year, nor do we time them to the begginning of the year. Certainly resolutions are made many times throughout the year.

But we did come to some meaningful realizations as we have been working on finalizing our home project. As we continue to organise things and sort out the old and unnecessary, we have decided to continue to simplify our lives physically and emotionally, and will look to increase and enhance our lives socially, spritually, and thus emotionally and physically as well.

We look forward to this year and all its possibilities. We look forward to continued wonderful miracles, especially the miracle of growing our family. And we lift up all of you in our thoughts and prayers as well.
