I’m really loving sharing so many unread poems with all of you, and I truly hope you’re enjoying it too. It seems like the new policy of sharing the poem for all to read, and then leaving the deep dive, the process analysis, the story or my thoughts and emotions behind the poem for the upgraded subscriptions has been working, and I hope it encourages you all to join us on the other side, if you haven’t yet.

Only two weeks into a brand new year, WE still get to decide what we wish to fill the year ahead with, we get to decide who we wish to become. There is a freedom in the blank sheets of calendar paper ahead of us, there is liberty in understanding that all the came before, does not have to come again.

This is not impressive, though the fact that I don’t even care about automobiles, I’m not a gear-head, not a fan of supercars or sports cars or even care that I’ve only ever driven Subarus in my adult life (with the exception of a short-lived stint in an old 4Runner to carry two giant golden retrievers), does add a bit of wonder to how and why I managed to do this.

The Matchbook, as I’ve mentioned a few times over the last few posts, is an ever-evolving beast.

I’ve always had trouble with Resolutions, especially those of the New Year’s persuasion. I’ve always thought they feel like punishments, rather than encouragements, more like harsh limitations we put upon ourselves rather than uplifting bits of spark and shine that help us become actually better people.

I don’t much believe in regret, don’t find value in the looking back of it all. We can’t undo what we did, can’t reach our bony little fingers back through some wormholes of time to un-stir the pots we stirred, can’t remove the stitches we sewed into the fabric of our lives. We did what we did, we are who we are because of it. We can look forward, sure, can aim our sights at higher grounds, those shining hills of moral graciousness.

My friends, my dear, dear, beautiful friends, we’re back here again somehow, here at the end of one year and the blossoming of the new. We’re here, these people we’ve spent so much time creating and molding, these people we should be so proud to be. That said, it’s entirely ok to have something you want to aim for in the year to come, something you wish to change. That’s what we’re going to talk about today, but with a huge restriction. Are you ready?

It’s CHRISTMAS EVE! Hands down this is one of the best nights of the entire year, the day that I used to run, horizontally inside my sheets, to try to wear myself out each night so I’d actually sleep. I couldn’t WAIT each morning to watch people open the gifts I’d chosen for them, I couldn’t WAIT to see if Santa came, to eat the breakfast all sleepy eyed and worn out from staying up trying to listen for reindeer.
