Have a Happy New Year!
By jmoorhead on December 31st, 2008
As we enter a new year, I pause to be “freaked” out that we are already 9 years into the New Millennium. I remember when the year 2000 was the party that was supposed to be happening in 1999 (according to Prince). I am happy to report though, that as we continue to feel the pains of the economy and the world’s uncertainty, there is a reason for the season.
Friends are around. Family is in our lives. Blood runs through our veins and dreams dance in our minds.
In 2009, when Travel and Gather is fully launched, we hope that you’ll use it to reconnect. Reconnect with family, friends and yourself.
As I look back at pictures, and write in my journal… I find that I really “hear” the world when it is silent and there is nothing to fill my mind. There is no technology, no abundance of people… Just a book, pen and paper… Unplugged if you will.
It is in these quiet moments that I fully realize the connections that I have made with people all over the country and all over the world. What a life it has been to connect beyond one zip code.
Enjoy today, tonight… Be safe… We’ll see you next year!
