Dear Lord, for all that has been, thanks. For all that will be, amen!
It’s the last few hours of 2019 and we will be welcoming another year in our midst. We may look at the fading leaves of 2019 as something we will always remember or something we may want to forget. No matter how it has been for all of us, it has taught us lessons in life. We may choose to ignore them and start all over again.
I could now hear the occasional boom and bang of firecrackers. Though there are only allowed firecrackers and pyrotechnic devices, some people are bold enough to use those classified as illegal. Every year, there is an increase of patients being brought to nearby hospitals because of firecracker accidents. Our dog Noki is scared of fireworks. He cowers in fear when they light the sky and noise is too loud. Josef gave him a bath last night so he could stay under the dining table before new year comes. He usually stays at our garage or at the dirty kitchen, a guard dog. This is Oreo’s second year with us and I am quite surprised that he is not afraid of the noise, he just barks.
All is set for 2020. Forget the New Year’s resolutions. Several years ago, I used to make a list but come February, they are usually ignored. I haven’t made any resolution the past several years. All I ask first and foremost is good health for the whole family, peace of mind, enlivened Faith, and being able to face everything that life brings – with courage. Happiness comes naturally when you have all these.
