The start of a new year is often treated like a blank page, a ‘do-over’ as the Americans say! But the truth is New Year’s Eve isn’t a magic night; in reality we wake up on New Year’s Day much the same as we woke up 24 hours before, carrying all of our previous experiences in to that day and the 365 days ahead.
What the new year does offer is a chance to reflect on the year gone by, the good, encouraging and inspiring times and take them with us in to the year ahead, expectant for more.
For us at Beyond Ourselves, like I said in the post before Christmas, as we reflect on the year gone by there were some real highlights, things we celebrated and were excited for. And as we look to this new year, we don’t want to start afresh with a blank page. We want to take all that’s gone before, that same heart, passion and vision we have had for the past eight years and be expectant for more in 2017! Yes, there are things we will change this year, new ventures we will embark on, but it’s all from the same heart we’ve always had for the communities we partner with in Zambia, to see people empowered and communities transformed.
So I say here’s to new adventures this year, here’s to more!
