Well younger and older it is about that time of year. The time to flip over to a new calendar. Yes, it is new years eve. Probably one of the biggest party nights in the civilized world. People are willing to stand out in the cold and damp to watch things fall from the sky. People make the same old resolutions to keep for the new year. All the college bowl games appear on television. People also hope for a better year than last year.
Into the new year people still write last year's date on their checks. Well, the few people that actually use checks anymore. Resolutions are forgotten. People try to avoid falling things out of the sky. No one can remember who played what, except the diehard fans who remember every yard run. In fact the new year is just like the old year.
It is bizarre that people love to celebrate the passage of time, yet long for the past. The past is much easier to live through when you have already made it.
So Happy New Year! I hope that 2007 is the year for you to shine or at least you have an umbrella that does not leak.
