The new year is literally minutes away at this point. The last year has brought me a very different life in a new house and a new city. My job has stayed the same but pretty much everything else has been turned slightly on its head. While it is occasionally frightening, it has been quite a blessing at the same time. My son has grown and developed into a handsome, polite, intelligent boy. My job, while needlessly painful at times, is still some place I generally enjoy. And my life... Well... I'm happy. That alone is a major improvement. I am sitting on the couch, watching someone I love a great deal play a silly game, while we share a bottle of wine and while there is no excitement... There is no where I would rather be in this moment.
For me, this has been a year of forgiveness and change. It had been a year of healing and growth. It hadn't been perfect, but I'm a better person for having lived it. That's about all I can really ask. I genuinely hope the next year can be one of joy and stability both for myself and all of you. I know I still have a lot of growing to do, but for the first time in a very long time I'm not afraid. Happy New Year to you all. May the next year be everything you hope it may be.
