Now we are writing the last entry in my online diary for this year. This was a whole year, how fast it passed and still how many things happened. We had the idea of this diary and now we have filled 365 virtual pages. We are now planning to publish it as a book next year.
I want to say thank you to all readers for their interest and also their comments and questions which gave me more and more inspiration. Many thanks also to Roger and Ramona. I thank Roger who was always quick with the French translation so that it was possible to read it in English, German and French.
As I am a very spontaneous person it happened very often that I got an idea for the diary while travelling or just before going to bed or also when sitting together with ten or fifteen people. But wherever I had an idea it was great that Ramona was there to write it down even if it had to be on a carton box when there was no paper or computer in reach. Ramona did wonderful work, we did not stop writing the diary for holidays. We wrote seven days a week and all twelve months, if we were in train, in a house or even at the airport because we wanted to give you this diary. And it was our joy and our fun to write it. It became a daily ritual which brought much enjoyment to us, too.
Only on one day it happened that we wrote it and just forgot to upload it but in the next morning we received a phone call asking if something happened. People were missing it already. So we quickly uploaded it in the morning. I have got the feedback that this diary gave answers to many people and touched their hearts. It is real and practical, talking about what is going on around us and what is happening.
In December we could also add a new feature which is nice for people who were searching for a certain topic in all pages of the diary: all pages are now in categories for which Ramona read each entry again. Now you can read my diary sorted by topics.
From tomorrow on we will write for a new year but 2008 will still be available to read. I started this year and this diary here in Schwabmünchen where I am also spending the last days, hours and minutes of the year.
I wish a happy New Year to everyone. I pray to my God which is love that He fills your heart with His presence and gives you the ability to enlighten other people’s hearts with love.
