In my youth, I measured time in hours and minutes. The end of the school day felt like forever from now, and a year nearly incomprehensible. Then I began to see time in days, weeks, and years - marked by monthly bills, children’s birthday parties, and school calendars.
How thorough of you and your friend to burn away the parts of 2023 and yourselves that don't belong in 2024. Realizing the irrelevant or outdated and dumping those parts is hard but efficient wisdom. Retain and shine up the good parts for 2024! Hugs.
That is very true Jason, we all have one chance at a meaningful life. Each of us at one time or another charted where that path will lead us by an action, or a thought that took only a split second of consideration. None of us are perfect, but until we literally can’t, we must keep moving forward to get to the finish line knowing we tried our best. Happy New Year my old friend, sending wishes for this year to be rewarding, and memorable for all of us.

Just what I needed to hear on this day. Thank you Jason for sharing!
