Happy New Year?

1/7/2013

0 Comments

 
I have wished people "Happy New Year!" for many years now, but this year someone made me think about it.  The familiar greeting began to sound hollow to me...  I thought about it frequently as 2012 ended and 2013 began.  Was that really what I wanted to wish people?  Then a family member posted the following quote on Facebook:

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.  Your'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 is 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.  ~ Neil Gaiman
So, "Messy New Year!" or "Happy New Mistakes!"...


OK...I feel better now :)
