Let's Go Into This New Year Rising Up

Where there is ruin,

there is hope for a treasure.

-Rumi

Dec 31st brings joy and sorrow for me. I know there are so many out there that feel the same way. This painting is for all of us.

Rise.

Rise my friends, brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, sons, daughters, lovers, and husbands.

Rise from the fire pits.

Rise from the ashes.

How?

By deciding to do so.

It's in our hands, yours and mine.

Let's not go gently into that good night.

Let's go into the following year's rising.

If you fall, do not fret,

Rise again,

And again,

And again.

Rise till you have lifted yourself an inch from where you are.

It is going to be hard work.

But we can do this.

We will do this.

Let's rise using our passion, our compassion, our sense of purpose,

And love.

Luv

From my heart to yours
