Affirmation

This is not the day I choose to sound what Billy Shakespeare called "alarums".

We are on the cusp of an awakening of sorts in America. November was evidence.

Now, at MY age, when I awake in the morning, the first thing I do is express my heart's firmest Gratitude... Another chance to get IT right !

Therefore, between the time you read this and the birth of a new year, join in reflecting that the Advent we remember is a celebration of the introduction of Forgiveness and Possibilities into an Earthly history bestrewn with dark Vengeance, Fear and Pessimism.

Whatever our belief system holds, we should all have room for some shining light and some suspicion that we may see better days and firmer assurance. "It" CAN get better.

I remember one time it did...in 1945 !!!

May we all welcome our new tasks and victories.
