Happy New Year 2010!
We would like to wish you a blessed 2010 with a couple of pics taken at the fireworks display from the Fløya mountain viewed from Tromsø city.
As we enter 2010, I personally think the following quote may be helpful to keep in mind:
It is not in life's chances but in its choices that happiness comes to the heart of the individual.(author unknown)
We'd like to leave you with the thoughts expressed in this poem by By Joanna Fuchs
New Year's Reflections
Looking back on the months gone by,
As a new year starts and an old one ends,
We contemplate what brought us joy,
And we think of our loved ones and our friends.
Recalling all the happy times,
Remembering how they enriched our lives,
We reflect upon who really counts,
As the fresh and bright new year arrives.
And when I/we ponder those who do,
I/we immediately think of you.
Thanks for being one of the reasons I'll/We'll have a Happy New Year!

Thanks for your comment, Markku! As to the poem, someone sent it to my e-mail, perhaps my mum, on New Year's Eve and I thought it coincided well with my own thoughts at the time.

My own thoughts wandered, roamed and roved last night after sending my short comment. I like short poems with long lasting ideas. The choice of my English words is limited and complicates what I would like to say more.
Anyway the liberty of speech is one of the most beautiful thing for a human being.
The hover inside me became almost biblical when thinking those two words - chance and choice. Who else than the own spirit inside a human being knows better, what is inside there. We have been given a free choice to choose.
There are changes, chances and choices. Last important ones we have to make.

Godt nytt år til dere også, der oppi i nord.
Forresten frantastiske raketter, har ikke sett på maken. Nydelige...

Blessings for all in our choices.
