As we near year-end, it’s natural to dream of what we’d like to experience in the New Year. This has been a harsh year in many ways…Politics, weather, economic setbacks, government incompetence and the Dallas Cowboys are all examples of existential challenges.

EASTER CUTENESS OVERLOAD…
Life’s Roller Coaster!… Easter! April 1st! Youthful celebration! Senior demise. Our inevitable life cycle. We can choose to delay and deflect, but only for so long.
