Recipe for a Happy New Year



To leave the old with a burst of song,
To recall the right and forgive the wrong;
To forget the thing that binds you fast
To the vain regrets of the year that's past;
To have the strength to let go your hold
Of the not worthwhile of the days grown old,
To dare to go forth with a purpose true,
To the unknown task of the year that's new;
To help your brother along the road
To lend your shoulder to ease his load;
To add your gift to the world's good cheer,
Is to have and to give a Happy New Year.


To start the New Year off on the right foot, I'm attempting to get back to blogging and to updating this site with all of the wonderful things going on in the artistic career of MY Idol Taylor Hicks.

Perhaps the best way to do that would be to let you hear from Taylor Hicks himself what he has been up to and what we can look forward to in the coming months.

Taylor Hicks is the main ingredigent for MY Happy New Year recipe. My 2009 calendar is already filling and I expect it to be a VERY GOOD YEAR!

I hope that you have taken the time to browse around here at 'The Pond' and enjoy all of the sites and sounds of 2008!

For anything that I might have missed, I urge you to visit any of the listings below!

In no particular order, I prepared some time ago, a mind boggling array of online sites devoted to supporting the musical and artistic career of Taylor Hicks. I'm sure I've even missed some as new ones pop up constantly. My apologies to those I may have missed and to any sites whose addy might now be incorrect.

The unknown author of that verse you quoted was so "right on". Thanks for bringing it to our attention.

Happy New Year Bloom.

Your recipe for 2009 is an excellent one, Bloom!

I enjoyed watching the videos and your extensive list of Taylor sites and information is amazing!

Looking forward to your new blogs and wishing you a wonderful 2009!

Cath, that quote pre-dates the 1930's and it still fits today.

Happy New Year ladies, it is looking to be a great year, well except for all the snow we have
