Today is the first day of 2007 but the 19,212th day of my life.

I never could understand the whole “happy new year” thing. As Bono sings: ” Nothing
changes on New Year’s day”.

I suppose we all carve our lives up into manageable bits. After all, we’re human all
too human. I prefer to try to see life as one long thread. Same with the oceans. We
call them by different names but if you look you’ll see that they’re all connected….
one big body of water.

The great public holidays have a certain power, I suppose, whether I want to acknowledge
it or not. Oh well…..I’ll try not to get bent out of shape about it…..maybe even wallow in
a bit of nostalgia…..look back to see Cindy and me when we were young(er).
