Happy New Year!
I love New Year's Day. It's the most artificial of holidays of course, since picking a day to start the year is completely arbitrary, but we still are welcome to imbue it with meaning. I choose to do so.
This day I let myself hope for new things, and this year I am hoping for the unexpected, the startling, the joyful. I hope that we can change things for the better, and appreciate the good that is already here. I hope for a stronger sense of my own limits, so that I am not either wasting talents or over-extending myself.
And I hope that you, too, have hope...
