The mail brought some smiles today. A package from across the oceans arrived from my friend Strictly. She’s been a fan and friend for a while now. We share a love for sharing our music and our hearts. Kathy, her real name, also is a fan of my postcard project.

In that spirit is why this package was sent from Australia. It brings me more wonderful cards to send out. Check them out.

Talk about a wonderful surprise to come home to.  The cards are beautiful and bright.  There are animals, scenes and more.  So neat to see Brisbane and Queensland on them.

It’s going to be fun sending those back out to friends old and new. Who knows. Kathy might be getting one of them back. Ha.

Twitter isn’t just about talking online, it’s a way to foster real relationships.

I’m inspired by my Twitter friend, @freshfocus. Every Friday on Fresh Focus she shares the link love. Bonus – they are work and family safe.

Here are some links to some good posts to kick of your year.

• Strictly shares about her new years struggles, and as she puts it, their ’smashing to pieces’. Strictly Anything.
• DigitalMaverick also shares his goals for 2009, as well as some kismet he’s already experienced. Digital Mavericks.
• ChrisBrogan gives us push with his three goals for 2009. A unique way to approach them. Chris Brogan.

The list of great New Years post is amazing really.  That said, I’ve yet to do my own.

I’d love you to share yours with me here, or share the most interesting ones you’ve found.  Also, do consider writing your own Friday Link Love post to share the wealth.
