Noting the Changes

While updat­ing my con­tacts data­base for Christ­mas card labels, I noted how many changes there have been in the past sev­eral years: so many older aunts and uncles who have died, so many mar­riages in dis­ar­ray. It was a sober­ing thought.

And a rea­son to be grate­ful for the friends and fam­ily who still sur­round us – wher­ever they may be.
