New Endings... Old Beginnings...

Every new beginning means the end of another beginning... (lyrics of a song, I think)  Today, the last day of 2009, is the end to a particularly trying year.  What is it that really signifies an ending?  Closure?  What signifies closure?  For me it is the changing of a mindset...  This past year (and the last couple months of 2008) I learned what it means to be alive and to be truly thankful for what, and who, I have in my life.  So I'm approaching 2010 with a new mindset... One inwhich I am truly grateful and looking forward to what lies ahead...
