Happy New Year! It’s a time for changes and diet plans (that you may not necessarily stick to) but something’s should never change; like the My Year in Music posts that will continue arriving every month. I’ve even got the first few songs of 2023 picked out. This year had its ups and downs like every year but we can always choose to focus on the core memories and highlights and be thankful that 2022 taught us so much.
We head towards 2023 with no idea what’s coming next and as a superb actor said, while being Teddy Roosevelt: “It’s time for your next adventure” and when he was told that someone had no idea what they were going to do tomorrow the answer was “How exciting!….Smile my boy, it’s sunrise.”
As always, I’m leaving you all with the YouTube playlist and the monthly playlist and, at last, the year’s completed playlist on Spotify.
