As a child, I remember many games in which a poorly execute game play was immediately followed by the culprit shouting "DO OVER!" Not exactly sure why I bought into the play, guess I knew I would need one....and yes, I did need many.
Entering a new year has a similar feel to the historical "DO OVER!". You've worked hard through the good, the bad, and let's be honest....the ugly. Entering 2009 can be a great opportunity for you to anchor your foot on the home plate and demand a DO OVER for another attempt to make contact with that foul ball you just lobbed up and over your neighbor's fence.
May the new year be a time you experience the peace, joy, hope and love that you were created to live.
