Well, yet another week comes to a close - and yet another week we are closer to the next year. This usually turns out to be the time to reflect upon the year past and to reconcile with oneself.

I for one have many things I have done this year that I had hoped for, even though the result was not what I had envisioned. Perhaps I set my sights too high, which I know I tend to do too often for myself.

In addition - there are things I have not done or completed which I set out to complete this year. Should I rush those, or should I accept the fact that I had set my own bar too high? Perhaps. Truthfully, I can not answer the questions I have placed upon myself at this time.

Furthermore, I must come to terms with myself right now. There are things that must be done and dealt with first.

This year will be, if anything, the year of closure. Maybe that was what it all should have been from the start. One can not rush into a room without having left the other.

… and so it begins with the end. Let it commence in our hearts and minds so we may free our souls from within and embark upon a new journey.
