STOP AND THINK New Year's Day is every man's birthday. (Charles Lamb, English essayist, 1775-1834)

On our birthdays we look back at the past, grateful for what has been achieved, but eager for the next year. So it is with the beginning of each new year: we’re hopeful for good health, better relationships, and exciting new opportunities. This year, let’s focus on the future.
 
Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal. (Philippians 3:13-14)
