Forward or backward: a Blog off post
Every weeks the blogosphere comes alive whilst bloggers of every stripe weigh in at the identical topic. The subject matter for these days is "What are you searching ahead to within the new yr?"
--------------------------------------
The topic this week was my handiwork more or less. If you click on this link it will take to the official Let's Blog Off website and on it you can read my musings on Janus, gates, looking forward and looking back.

January receives its name from the Roman god Janus. Janus had two faces, one that appeared ahead and any other that regarded lower back. He presided over transitions and gates of all types and he had the capability to evaluate the beyond and the destiny on the same time.

I'll let Janus check the year we just exceeded all he desires to, I cannot be rid of it rapid sufficient. For me it changed into a yr of triumph and loss and extra than whatever, I'm looking forward to a fantastic big leveling out in 2012. I expended a variety of strength at the end of the final year as I set matters up for the brand new 12 months and now that it's the third of the month already if feels accurate to have handed thru the gate between the vintage 12 months and the new.
