A Poetic Reflection on The New Year by Sharon L DuBois




#HappyNewYear #NewBeginnings #SharonDubois #2025

How many times has one year flown by, without my humble, wide-eyed

Amazement at the awesome wonders and blessings contained within? Is it

Possible that I have forgotten about the seemingly small, occasionally overlooked, daily miracles??

Peeking a blind eye around a blind corner to the approaching tomorrow, neglecting the precious gift of all

Yesterdays. Reminder to self: Express genuine thankfulness for my family, friends, my job, which provides harvest-yielding seed, & All Praises to My Heavenly Father, whose Grace abounds brand spankin’


New every morning, as evidenced by my health, life, and strength. With each drop of rain, and rising of the sun, I am made aware of the

Ever-present opportunity to do a “new thing”, a “new way”, with a “renewed mind”!! No logical reason to

Whine or complain about difficulties along the journey, “JUST DO IT!!” The sum total of each and every one of my



Yesterdays equals who I am today, and a new year sings of joyful additions to that

Equation. Dear one, my wish for you, is not just a Happy New Year, but

An amazing, awe-inspiring, ambidextrous (yep, blessings filling BOTH hands!) LIFE!!! ALWAYS:

Remember how much I admire, cherish and love you!!!

Can Coffee Cut a Woman's Stroke Risk?

#Stroke  #Coffee #WomensHealth #HealthNews #Research A Swedish study shows even a cup a day reduces the risk; Experts say more proof needed Women who have at least one cup of coffee -- or even five cups -- daily may be reducing their risk of stroke by as much as 25 percent, new Swedish research shows. And women who don't drink coffee at all may actually be  increasing  their risk for stroke, the researchers noted. However, the researchers added, these findings are preliminary and should not cause any change in coffee-drinking habits. "Results from our study in women showed that consumption of 1 to 5 cups of coffee per day was associated with a 22 to 25 percent lower risk of stroke, compared with consumption of less than 1 cup a day," said lead researchers Susanna Larsson, from the National Institute of Environmental Medicine at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm. "Even small amounts of coffee may reduce the risk of stroke," she added. ...

Little, the upcoming comedy movie directed by Tina Gordon [Trailer]

#ReginaHall #IssaRae #MarsaiMartin #JustinHartley #ToneBell #RachelDratch #Little Girls Trip's Regina Hall and Black-ish's Marsai Martin both star as Jordan Sanders - Hall as the take-no-prisoners tech mogul adult version of Jordan and Martin as the 13-year-old version of her who wakes up in her adult self's penthouse just before a do-or-die presentation.  Insecure's Issa Rae plays Jordan's long-suffering assistant April, the only one in on the secret that her daily tormentor is now trapped in an awkward tween body just as everything is on the line. Little is an irreverent new comedy about the price of success, the power of sisterhood and having a second chance to grow up - and glow up - right.
