Reblogged with additions for 2014. Happy New Year everyone! Thanks for reading.

There are two kinds of people in the world:

1. those who would go to Times Square for New Years Eve, and those who couldn’t be paid enough to go…

2. those who go out for New Year Eve, and those who stay home…

3. those who would rehab an old vacant house, and those who would look for a new one instead…

4. Cat-lovers and Dog-lovers…

5. Savers and Pitchers…

6. Dreamers and Doers…

7. those who love city streets, and those who love dirt roads…

8. those who stay, and those who go…

9. those who love snow, and those who, uhmm… don’t…

10. those who take naps, and those who feel superior to those who take naps…

11. those who believe and those who scoff…

12. those who look up and those who look down…

13. those who eat their fruits and vegetables, and those who eat their meat’n potatoes…

14. those whose glass is half-empty and those whose glass is half-full…

At different times in our lives, we can be any of these.
Me? I have been all these people–a city lover, a country girl, a scoffer, a believer, an optimist, a pessimist, a cat-lover, a dog-lover, a dreamer, a doer…(Though I would have to be paid a lot of cash to go to Times Square on New Year’s Eve.)
Can we remember this?
Can we remember that our differences make this beautiful world what it is?
Can we let go of our prejudices, our prides, our preconceptions, our (fill in the blank here)… and love each other?

May grace and peace be yours in abundance in 2014.
