O stay without, O stay without,
Calm comely Youth, untasked, untired;
Though stars irradiate thee about
Thy entrance here is undesired.
Open the gate not, mystic one;
           Must we avow what we would close confine?
           With thee, good friend, we would have converse none,
Albeit the fault may not be thine.
Thomas Hardy. At the Entering of the New Year

Old Time has turned another page
           Of eternity and truth;
He reads with a warning voice to age,
           And whispers a lesson to youth.
A year has fled o'er heart and head
           Since last the yule log burnt;
And we have a task to closely ask,
           What the bosom and brain have learnt?
Eliza Cook, Song for the New Year

Old papers thrown away,
         Old garments cast aside,
The talk of yesterday,
         Are things identified;
But time once torn away
         No voices can recall:
The eve of New Year's Day
         Left the Old Year lost to all.
John Clare, The Old Year

Gladiator Elysium Now We Are Free, Hans Zimmer Live Prague

Nothing Else Matters (Metallica), MOZART HEROES

NUVOLE BIANCHE, Evgeny Genchev

Happy New Year, Everyone !

If you think you can't accept something, try to change it. But if this doesn't work, don't be frustrated, but give it later another try. The one who perseveres wins! Please CLICK HERE to see my journal! Feel free to save my images or to add them to your favorites.

Well, I am quite touched and impressed on how much you give to us, with your art, with your quotes, and with your musical taste that we hardly ever see that adds so much to the beauty of life. I seriously wish there were more people like you in our world.

No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.
