I hope you will have a
wonderful year, that you'll dream dangerously and outrageously, that you'll
make something that didn't exist before you made it, that you will be loved and
that you will be liked, and that you will have people to love and to like in return.
And, most importantly (because I think there should be more kindness and more
wisdom in the world right now), that you will, when you need to be, be wise,
and that you will always be kind. [Neil Gaiman]
Birthdays are round the corner. My family, all of them, are
September, October, and November people. I have been trying to think of the
sort of something I want to DO for them. Each one. And it helps that my brother
will BE in town for our mother’s 86th on 9.11.
I love what Gaiman wrote. It’s the sort of thing I wish for
those I love. I’ve so much Hope for everyone. Even if there’s no really good
reason to BE that hopeful. Sometimes I think this is mayBE a little weird for
my family.
What I mostly want is Kindness to reign supreme through us
all. If something is “broken” or even just slightly damaged, what is that up
against Kindness?!
I hope we all WILL have wonderful years.
I love you, Currie
