I woke up early this morning, just to listen to the house breathe.
It felt reassuring to know that it all in all, it had witnessed a quiet year and that good care had been taken of it such that in return, it protected the whole family from (un) intended harm.
Home truly felt like the safest place to be in this year of the snake, knowing that quite a few tragedies were taking place out there in the big bad world. 2013 will not be wrapped with greasy paper nor tied with a golden ribbon. By now, we all ought to know that it's the way of the world that things go awfully bad or surprisingly well sometimes. The bad came with the demise of loved ones, the end of relationships, rejections, failures to launch and the good came in the shape of new found wisdom and peace of mind.

Projects for 2014? Well, the usual: Aim for the moon and with some luck fall on a star.
