T'is the season of giving and receiving. After wracking my brain, I can't think of many greater gifts than the trust of a child or animal. Then, of course, the trick is maintaining our worthiness of such a precious gift.
And the New Year is traditionally a time of hope. Our hope, as always, rests with our young. As I approach my 60th New Year, I realize that with a greater sense of import than ever.
Be good to yourself and others in 2011. (Amazingly, the latter usually accomplishes the former.)
Happy New Year.

Gee Harman. I'm afraid I'm going to play hard to get. You'll have to visit me a couple more times first, so I can be sure you aren't just toying with my affections.
:)
