part of me wants to celebrate ringing in the new year in a sparkly, festive kind of way; part of me wants to meander in a finding yourself while wandering kind of way. whatever you do, be safe and enjoy. happy new year to all.

"and now let us welcome the new year, full of things that have never been" rainer maria rilke. as much as i look forward to considering the endless possibilities for the year ahead, i always enjoy the act of reflection as a way to gain perspective and bring closure to the year that has passed.
wishing you a happy new year and a happy weekend.
