Time has put a thick layer of haze over so many of the day-to-day details that was the year 2011. Although every year has its own individual sets of ups, downs, and in-betweens, 2011 was quite a doozy. Fortunately, nothing overly traumatic so that itself should be considered a victory. Stripping away all of the residue, I am still here and perhaps that could also be considered a plus for some.
Some people moved out of my life, new arrivals showed up on the scene and some of the classics stayed put. All of which make for a mix of good, bad, and ugly. Some that moved on left a vacancy that I didn't think could be filled, but the machine keeps churning and life doesn't stop for a moment despite the occasional need for a pause and an exhale. Perhaps this is why Auld Lang Syne is so attached to New Year's Eve and to this day, I find it incredibly depressing.
2012 has officially been shoved in our face and I hope that it finds you well. Although it is selfish, I am hoping that the year rekindles my desire to create and I live up to my mantra of "Awareness, kindness, and respect" in 2012.
