New Year’s Eve: A Thought for The Cusp of the Year, Courtesy Of St Augustine

Last light of the sun, & of 2013...

New Year’s Eve is the time when we stand on the cusp of the old year and the new, when it is timely to look both back and forward. There may be more apposite quotes for such a time and activity, but I am hard pushed to think of them:

“Bad times, hard times, that is what people keep saying, but … We are the times; such as we are, such are the times.”

~ St Augustine, 354 – 430 AD

Certainly a thought to reflect on in terms of our own intentions for 2014.
