There is something about a New Year...




There is something about a New Year ...
For all the excitement and anticipation of what is to come ...
for all the enchantment and grief and glory and embarrassment and pride and disappointment and ruts in the road and sweet grassy fields sprinkled with sweet daisies - for all the blue skies and dark storms for all the babies born and some inexplicably incomprehensibly lost - for all that we have come to understand and that we realize we have yet to learn - for all who have departed in all sorts of ways and all who have arrived both unexpectedly and awaited - for those on bended knee in prostrated plea or protest and those standing tall in resistance - for the burst of good health and the recognition of fragility - for all the loving, messy, pristine, powerful punch of life in the gut and tickle in the deepest part of heart, mind and soul. Embracing, recalling, archiving and releasing it all. Bon Voyage 2017 and Welcome to the wonders to come in 2018. To each and all of you my friends in all dimensions - may we summon the strength to cope and the courage to enjoy and the good sense to never conflate the two. Wishing all a happy, healthy, peaceful New Year - you mean more to me and to others than perhaps you know. With Kindness and Love..
