It’s New Year’s Eve, a time for celebration for the year that is passing and the new year to come. I’m celebrating my achievements this year that include this:
At last I can finally call myself a Sensei, a teacher of Sogetsu ikebana. My teacher’s diploma was presented to me in early December at my Sogetsu ikebana class by my Sensei Jane Redmon, and I still can’t believe that I have it. I’ve told a few people, but have kept it to myself mostly. I’m hoping it will open some doors and encourage me to continue to learn and grow as I continue on the path I have chosen. My goals for next year are being set and I you make a list of your hopes and dreams and follow it. Here is wishing everyone a happy, healthy and creative 2012!
Congratulations on a very special achievement. You can be proud! You have worked so hard and have been so devoted to practicing, learning and sharing. It is a big accomplishment. The certificate is lovely. A long distance bow to you.
Congratulations!!!! and Happy New Year!
