Good morning - greetings and salutations to all the mylotters on the web. The hope is that each and everyone's dream for the year becomes a reality even if it has to materialize in little stages - almost like a puzzle until it is complete. After all, Rome was not built in a day, and touché to the French Proverb for being SPOT on! the history behind the phrase: "Rome wasn't built in a day" is an adage attesting to the need for time to create great things. It is the usual English translation of a medieval French phrase, «Rome ne fu[t] pas faite toute en un jour», from the collection Li Proverbe au Vilain, published around 1190" Thus having the need for time to create or manifest our dreams is how we should approach the matters in the year 2019, and with a steady and conscientious mindset, we can do just about anything we set our minds on. Be Big dreamers, be Go-Getters, try New Things, the world is your oyster. I shall be back soon with some insightful travels or other stuff that might make for good reading. Until then - Have a wonderful 365 days of this year. From me to you across the big pond!

"Be Big dreamers, be Go-Getters, try New Things, the world is your oyster." That was AMAZING!

@inlemay Paris is on my agenda this year. Just for 2 nights to see my brother before going on to spend a week in the country house of another brother in Normandy.

Happy New Year to you. I wish your goal for this year to accomplish will come true. That photo of Eiffel Tower in Paris is beautiful. I have crossed that bridge over the Seine river and have climbed to the viewing top of the Eifer Tower a few years ago. It was wonderful.

I will let 2019 surprise me. One thing I don't do is make New Years resolutions. I used to but I would lose interest or focus on the commitment and end up disappointing myself. Now I stay true to myself by not tacking a bunch of high expectations on what I can achieve in 12 months.

That is a very smart move. I gave up make New Years resolutions to a long time ago. If good things are going to happen to me and my family I will enjoy every moment of it.

Happy New Year Lany. The actual Mayor of Rome is doing a great job destroying Rome in less time than it took to make it. Too bad.
