Happy New Year From The Shattered Lens


by Erin Nicole

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

2024 is over and 2025 has begun.  The slate is clean, the page is blank, and it’s all up to us to decide what type of year this is going to be.

I’ve included two signs in this post.  At the top is what I hope to do whenever I am tempted to give into anger, despair, or bitterness.  At the bottom is what I sincerely hope for all of us in 2025.
