Happy New Year!

I have been reading scriptures from the Bible. I spend most of my time trying to write poetry. Since you mentioned that you are reading the Old Testament I will share the end of my New Year's poem:

I embrace hope as I contemplate,

Passing the strait gate,

To the most blessed place,

I accept that my faith,

Will raise me to the highest state.

Thanks for reading The Lucky Ones, Amy! I’m so glad you enjoyed it. I don’t keep track of what I read because I don’t always add my books on Goodreads. I don’t set reading goals either. And it’s always too hard to pick a favorite 😊
