What a wonderful way to end one year and begin another – a reflective mass with 6 other people in the chapel, sharing our prayers and hopes for the coming year. So much more meaningful and purposeful than your traditional New Year’s Eve celebration, which often seems to be just another excuse to have a party.
I can hear fireworks going off, echoing through the valley. It would be quite a sight to see them from the edge of the Quabbin, looking out across the water…but I will enjoy imagining the beauty of it, and not think about the fact they are really imitations of exploding bombs…
Happy new year, and may this one be filled with more love, more spirit, more peace, more hope in our lives and our world.
