Happy New Year


2017 is a year of transition



2016 was loud and rowdy as people sought their purpose and passion.

Lots of loss in the entertainment industry.

Stay on touch with reality ... especially as it shifts into position.

Wishing everyone a happy and healthy new year.


NZ's Auckland first world city to welcome in 2017   BBC - December 31, 2016
Auckland in New Zealand has become the first major world city to welcome 2017. Fireworks erupted from the 328m (1,080ft) tall Sky Tower in the city centre. Polynesia and Pacific islands including Samoa, Tonga and Kiribati entered 2017 at 10:00 GMT. Many cities around the world have stepped up security for New Year's Eve celebrations, after a year in which attackers drove lorries into crowds in Berlin and Nice. In Paris, Madrid and New York, concrete barriers and heavy goods vehicles will be used to block off central squares where crowds gather to celebrate.
