Entry One
This is the final portion of my journal that I finished at 11:59 pm, Saturday, December 31, 2023.
Pardon my use of the word enemies; until recently, I had believed myself without the degree of hostility fostered toward me that warrants the use of that term, but I now conclude there are some persons and organizations who so qualify.
Following is the first page of my journal for the year 2023. The anger I explore in the poem was and is toward Wookie, my dog, who upset me almost further than my grip on my emotions could sustain. I happily inform you that the beast is alive and well.
I hope you proceed into this promising New Year with peace and joy. We have much for which to be thankful over the past year, and we can meet 2023 with positivity. New blessings and greater abundance await us if we will but welcome them into our lives.
I am confident that we can go forward in good spirits, knowing improvement may greet us if we avail ourselves of the wonder of Love and live within its grace.
Gratitude List
I am thankful:
1. My life is blessed.
2. I have a home that affords me shelter and some comfort.
3. There is adequate food in my domicile that starvation is now averted.
4. The dogs are company and caring toward me.
5. I love my life and am content at this point, for God holds me in His tremendous Love.
