New horizons in the new year
Can you believe that it is already the first day of 2008? In some places in the world the new year is already a day or two old. The new year has come here in Southern California, and with it the advent of new things - I hope. I look forward to the new year, with new vision and with new hope. And of course, I hope to sail upon new shores and ask that my journeys bring me to new horizons. This world is so big, yet so small in some ways due to the advent of technology. Still, there is so much yet to be experienced - and I cannot wait. With the new, sometimes I think that I am quick to forget the old. But the old is also worth keeping and bringing along even in the new year. I think we're all like that in some ways. We look forward to new technology - bigger, better, faster, flashier. It's like a race to that one shiny bauble that will make our lives better. I hope that's really not the case and that the material is really just a side to the things that truly make our lives bet...
