First Words

How apropos to begin at the beginning of a new year. Not that I believe that there is any real significance to that marking of time - except that coincidence has brought me here tonight.

And perhaps that best describes the flow of my sojourn through this life, for I go where it takes me. A sailboat upon the sea of life. Attempting to set a course toward a destination, only to be blown from it by an unexpected wind. Some of hurricane force, others of a more subtle, yet equally persuasive push toward a new direction, new port and adventure.

In the early days of this life, I objected to these course changes, trying to maintain the all-important 'goals', one is taught that are important to set. Now, I don't give it another thought.
