The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Mark Twain
Your Year of Made Beauty. This is the year you stop waiting for the lovely thing to arrive and start deciding it into the room yourself. A space you've been meaning to set right finds its order in early spring, and people relax in it without quite knowing why. By summer, a gathering you pull together becomes the one everyone keeps mentioning months later, the easy way you balanced the table now obvious to all of them. Someone tells you that things simply work better when you're there, and for once you let yourself believe it. You were never finding harmony. You were choosing it, again and again, the way an artist chooses. Begin the next beautiful thing on purpose this year. The grace you bring is a decision, and the year is full of moments asking you to make it.
