It's -7 degrees in some parts of the UK. There is always hope for a White Christmas, the snow came just a and brought with it the coldest days for this year. 2014 December had Fog, Snow and Crisp mornings.
2015 is just round the corner.
What will you bring?
The Christmas lights gave the snow a festive feel. Traffic was disrupted during the holiday period that made travel kind of difficult. This made me think 2014 did not really end the way we thought it might . The ferry fire in Italy, Air Asia's tragedy at sea, and the Virgin Atlantic flight that was forced to land before making its journey. 2014 was making it's presence felt as it left us.2014 saw the death of a great actor Phillip Seymour Hoffman; what an actor and what a tragic end. My favourite was his portrayal of the priest in the movie "Doubt" 2014 also had the rise of the Islamic State, the kidnapping of 200 young Nigerian girls, and the Ebola virus that continues to create a crises situation continues.
Beginning of any year brings hope and the idea of the new, good exciting events that will be coming our way, 2015 who are you and what you bring us?
2014 had many great memories - my mums visit and her three months stay, fantastic moments especially as she is growing older and her ability to make a long journey on her own is bound to be limited. My trip to Ireland; the fantastic country and such warm people. Meeting cousins and friends I have not seen for years in the glorious London summer.Skype allowed me to bring
my old friends up to date with my life. Speaking to my four year old nephew and seeing him growing up, moments that will be cherished for ever.. And the most important part was discovering Mindfulness. The art of being aware and of accepting the now. I recommend it highly.
