January 1, 2010. I've been depressed through the holidays. So many things we had planned did not happen the way we had hoped this past year. I feel trapped and disappointed. It's cold and dark and I just don't care. Finally I decide that I need to call an old friend. I never sent out Christmas cards this year. But she's happy to hear from me and we talk about life and the new year and new hopes. I mention an idea for a blog and she loves it. She encourages me to pursue this wistful thought. And I feel more hopeful. I get up off the couch and go look for "one thing beautiful". Surely I can find that today. Surely I can find one thing beautiful...
