and so... for the holiday...

if today is the day then okay....

there are days that make others seem frivolous by comparison... today is one... with all the looking forward there always must be a bit of looking back.. because without a backward glance, there would be no glance at all....2011 will mark another year of those glances.. stolen moments of introspection meant for solace...and while i do look ahead publicly, I tend to make those stolen moments far more private. The rocks are still in my pockets, worn down from the boulders that once made up the yoke around my neck.. they are manageable now, easy to carry... easy to keep private...

So 2011 roars towards us all - to some it has already come calling.. and i wish all those who i am honored to call near and dear the best and brightest moments possible in the upcoming days.

and for the new shiny year, here is a small video ... for auld lang syne...




just a breath away... just a breath...and always.. always in my heart...
