How Are Our Lives Like An Open Book?

From Denny: Though it can be argued that calendars chase after the illusion of Time as linear and tangible, humanity still makes the vain attempt year after year. Perhaps it feeds our fantasies of mastering our Universe? Perhaps it soothes our collective fears in an uncertain world? Perhaps calendars assist us in grappling with the serious issues we face in this place called Life?

One practice is undeniably true: we can always begin our lives anew. When we fail ourselves or others, we can regroup, rethink our approach, choose another path in Life and being the slow tentative dance forward into the Unknown.

* We will open the book. Its pages are blank. We are going to put words on them ourselves. The book is called Opportunity and its first chapter is New Year's Day. - Edith Lovejoy Pierce
