| Photo by Mark Leatherman leathermanlandscapes.com I do love the holidays, but I also love the quiet of January. A time to reflect, perhaps reconsider some assumptions, and try something new. Where will I break out of my old patterns? What new stuff will I create? And how about you? Resolutions, schmezolutions -- what matters is taking a bit of time, nurturing the creative spirit, and perhaps taking a bit of a risk. Good luck to us all in this new year!
