If yule excuse me...

Posted on 07:27 by Unknown

Well, the holiday season is upon us, and like a lot of you I'll be traveling and merrymaking and cavorting and such for the next couple weeks. I expect not to post much between now and the new year, unless something crazy happens.

I gave thanks in this space recently, so I won't rehash it again. But as another year draws to a close I feel compelled to say again how profoundly fortunate I have been. It's been a full year, one with lots of success and some failure and some loss, one with separation and sadness but truly inspiring growth. At some point in my life I realized how important it was to be thankful for everything that I have, to not forget my great fortune. What's surprised me this year is just how easy that's been. More than happy, I've felt fulfilled. I hope you do too.
