Today is the first day of my next trip around the sun and my mantra for this year is “61 And Get It Done.” Time is marching on and while I have no plans of leaving this Earth anytime soon, time is becoming even more precious. I have so many books that I’ve not yet published, so many places that I want to visit, and so many things that I want to do. It’s time to “get them done,” and I’m making a promise to myself that I will.

So as I celebrate another trip around the sun today I count all the many blessings in my life, am grateful for all that I have done so far in these 61 years and have faith that everything else I want will get done.

And I’m grateful for every beautiful morning that I wake up and have a chance to do life better than the day before.

Today I say good-bye to 60. I do so with love and gratitude, taking all the lessons that I have learned right along with me into 61.

“Here’s to another trip around the sun, here’s to an awesome 61!”

Wishing you love and light,
