The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.” - Lao Tzu.


Newfangled wonderful ideas are swirling, twirling in my head,
elysian thoughts of total bliss and tranquility comfort me, and I am,
winding up to begin a new me, oh yes, I am on the threshold !

Blast off is imminent, a new me is opening like a red rose, I have
everything to gain_ time to put things into action. I have a plan !
Getting organized is part of the joy and fun, because
inside me there is a fire burning, and I am ready with a
new purpose and my motivation is at an all time high !
Nothing, nothing can stop my new beginning born from pondering
in isolation-   I have found the new me (no, not new!) just lost.
Now, is the time for this girl to shine bright like a star !
Getting my plans in order-   it begins with a first step, one- two- three,
setting in motion TODAY, but if I fail-   will begin again, then, again !

Congratulations on your win. I love your picture on the top and your line, "in isolation- I have found the new me (no, not new!) just lost." So many can say the same thing. It all does start with just one step. Enjoy your win/day with blessings....................
