Happy New Year! Kung Hei Fat Choi!
Bye bye Piggy, Welcome Ratty 

Today is a day to commit to your creative projects, to see the creative potentials in your work and to not take your commitments too seriously. Still commit, but take it lightly.

The challenge of today is based on attempting to weave all of the different threads of your life into one tapestry.

8 Monkey is a day of commitment with humour. Allow the spontaneous to enter into your activities without destroying the essential intent.
