Putting the Past to Rest

Posted by David | Filed under Personal

This is my 21st New Year’s celebration. Over the past 21 years, I have celebrated the coming of the new year in roughly 10 different communities, with 10 different sets of friends, each special and precious in their own ways. As this year draws to a close, I can’t help but wonder, like the rest of the world, what next year will bring. Another move? Another war? A new love? An old hope? Sometimes I think I can see so far into my own personal future, but this year was a wake-up call.

I have no idea what tomorrow holds, much less February through December. It’s dangerously vulnerable, wonderfully peaceful.
