Happy Holidays

Post by Steven Dale

All the best to everyone on this, the last holiday season of the first decade of our new millennium.

I’m terrible with Christmas cards (as any of my friends or family members will tell you) so let me just say this:

The last ten years have been rare, yes. Much ink and bandwidth will be spilled in the coming weeks on just how very special these last ten years have been. The meaning of special, of course, will be highly subject.

But then again, every age is special. Every age is unique. Sometimes I think we forget that. We forget to recognize that everyone who came before us had their successes and their failures, their trials and tribulations, their crises and their renaissances.

We also forget that everyone after us will experience the same. We’re nothing more than torchbearers, stuck between the rock of the past and the hard place of the future.

Enjoy that fact. Relax, reflect and celebrate. Have a happy holidays, whatever that means to you and your family.
