“I don’t “do” New Year’s Eve.
“Not saying I haven’t ever. Fact is, I’ve celebrated New Year’s
Eve on five continents…Imbibing my share of new year cheer…and
waking up feeling like I had been hit with a blivit.“I just choose not to do that anymore. I choose to acknowledge
the new year by reflecting, by outlining new goals…replacing
weaknesses with strengths. What I did on New Year’s Eve is spend
time with a few close friends gathered around a roaring fire out in
the middle of their back yard. We roasted hot dogs, marshmallows,
and talked.“We talked about you for a good part of that evening.”
