Merry Christmas to all and the wish for clear minds, good hearts [make that both kinds] and good health in the coming year. It is a time to celebrate & to reflect .. on time past, friends past, the opportunity of the present & on the promise and the smile it should bring forth, for it signifies acceptance and hope.
It is my hope that our lives be punctuated with much laughter and that the inevitable miss provide only a polite exclamation point.
I extend too, a prayer for all those removed from us and for less global discord.
