I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes. Because if you are making mistakes, then you are trying new things, learning, living, pushing yourself, changing yourself, changing your world. So that's my wish for you, and all of us, and my wish for myself. Make New Mistakes. Make glorious, amazing mistakes. Make mistakes nobody's ever made before. Don't freeze, don't stop, don't worry that it isn't good enough, or it isn't perfect, whatever it is: art, or love, or work or family or life.

Whatever it is you're scared of doing, Do it. ~ Neil Gaiman

I was going to plant a swan plant this evening for the monarch butterflies, but thought to wait until tomorrow, because several years ago I heard a sentiment that expressed something that makes much sense to me, and I’m sure to you as well. It was something like, “on new years day do something purposeful to honour the new year, with the hope that it will have meaning in the future”.
