The man I’ve known for thirty-seven years is having cookies and ice cream and watching a bad movie. This year ends and another begins. No resolutions needed or required. This past year has been unprecedented, but only in the way every year is, aren’t we're always encountering the unknown? Disappearing from the past; unknown by the future. Time would be difficult without the persons we know and love. We can reach out, send our words, share pictures and poems and books, jokes and help hold up one another’s defeat and grief. Thanks, and thanks and thanks again for the love. Be safe, be kind, be strong.
Thank You for reaching out, sending words, photos, love, beauty, grief, and joy. I've tried to write about calendar demarcations before, they seem so silly, so arbitrary. The sun rises, the daylength increases, moments arrive, we breathe them in, and then they are past.
