Same time, last year... Same place...

This time last year I was doing much the same as I am today, waiting for Julia to finish her last exam and another year at Marian, sitting Starbucks, lost in the clouds of writing a book. As Julia closed out her 1st year at Marian, this time last year, I wrote the last chapter of The Beauty of Digging Deep, and the words, The End.

Yet, far from the end, it was just the beginning. Today, I had hoped to write the same two last words on my novel-in-progress, but, alas, it seems, I have much still to say. The story has more to tell, the tale is just beginning...

So, as I ponder the quandary of time and place, look back and look forward, I can say it has been a great year.

To sweet endings and fresh beginnings, God bless our boys and girls, as they meet their milestones. May you always live, love, and be happy. 😄
