I’m in a weird mood. A making-up-words mood (this post was originally titled “Musically Unvocabulated”). A sore mood. A coughing, agitated mood.
But overall, a very Jambi mood.
I took a long, hard look over 2007. The first thing I noticed was how much had happened last year. The second thing I noticed was that a lot of the stuff that had happened was loss. Some good in it, but mostly sad, aching loss.
There was a lot of loss this year. Not just for me, personally, but for a lot of people I know as well.
It was a tough year, seemingly comprised of losses, set backs, and frustration.
But it was a really good year, too, I think, despite all of that.
I’m hoping that 2008 will have magnificent losses: loss of old habits, of old fears, that sort of thing. Which is good, because I have my work cut out for me.
