Beginning Well by Ending Well

Here comes 2010.  In preparation I’ve honored the various solstice traditions in several ways:  communing with friends and family, eating the customary foods, but most especially the letting go, the purging.

I guess I’m a bit of a pack rat – I’d rather think of it as resource protection – it’s just hard to let go of things which might prove useful…

In any case, I emptied my office and cleaned it thoroughly. In the process I purged old computers, outdated accessories, books, files, etc.. It took nearly 3 full days of effort.  A friend held a fire ceremony on New Year’s Eve and I incinerated a long-standing burden symbolically.  Through the quiet off-hours of these past weeks I’ve also managed to revamp the entire WhoPaste website..

So here we go.  I’ve readied for this ride!
