Out With The Old.

It’s always when we get to the end of the year we tend to reflect on it. We wonder what went right, what went wrong, and what went “huh?”. It seems that for me and a lot of friends and family, 2005 was particularly harsher that we expected.

For the first time, I’m finding myself thanking God the year is over in. For once, Saturday just won’t be the end week, or month, it’ll be the end of the year. I get to start fresh on Sunday with God.

It also a time I think about what I need and want to take on, and what I need or want to let go of. I’ve discovered that time speeds up as one ages, so the same things essentially take longer to do (or more accurately, you don’t do them so fast as you used to). So time is the bandit in the night, and priorities must be adjusted accordingly.

For me, it’s going to be a lot less writing, but a lot more wifing (that's the noun wife, which I made a verb). I’m also going to give up a “me” project in favor for an “us” project, as I feel that I would like to do more collaborative work.

Some of this is sad, but the good news is that if I do it right. I will be giving up something that’s primarily for me and replacing it with something a lot of people can share.
