Welcome to the New Year


The merry year is born
Like the bright berry from the naked thorn.
--Hartley Coleridge

New Year´s Day is every person´s birthday.
--Charles Lamb

Be at war with your vices,
at peace with your neighbors,
and let each year find you a better person.
--Benjamin Franklin

Gorgeous photograph. I have found myself feeling joy when coming upon a gorgeous sight such as you did when you found this rose. Even more thrilling is to have a camera with you to record this lovely sight.
