Merry Christmas 2020

What a year.

So much pain, so much suffering, so many dead.

For many, a year to get past, to be done with, to move on from. But I  wish you all the best of holidays. Stay close, hang with family and loved ones. Be safe. We will be past this soon. 

Four years ago this same time, just before Christmas, I wrote a blog that sought to make connections between things disparate. I was working on a book called "Trees, Sand and Snow." The blog is: here. I just reread it and believe it's worth taking a look at.

And, I will leave you with this:

Perhaps not the most upbeat views of Xmas views, but not a total disaster either. Two wreaths hung high (so as not to be stolen?) in a mall parking lot, the store a Bed Bath and Beyond and gray wintery skies.

Wishing you the best.
