The new year...only a few days away

Only a few days and it will be a new year.  Another year gone away; a year of much sadness for me.  I took some brave steps and I look back and think...how did I get through it?  But I did..and here I am.  I'm looking forward to saying goodbye to 2008 and hello 2009!  I pray that it will be the best year yet for me....I'm going to make it better....
