December

December is an old, familiar friend. It just sort of works out that way for me. I am sure others feel the same way.

In my world, nothing defines December more than the album “December” by George Winston. For the uninitiated, you can find it here:http://www.georgewinston.com/recordings/01934-11611-2.php

December is many other things, as well, but that album is the warm, cozy blanket that I put on each and every night. I don’t know how else to describe it.

Each December, I take a day for myself, and I reflect. I used to use it as time to look back at my journey the past 12 months and venture to dream about the coming 12 months. This year…this year there are no limitations. This year there are no boundaries. This year…the context is different.

Still, I recognize this month for what it is and what it is meant to be. I welcome it and all that comes with it.

Welcome to December…
