As difficult as
it may be we have to look back over this year and reflect on the things that we
can truly be thankful for. We also have an obligation to reflect on this year
and ask ourselves if we have taken the time to look at situations in life through another lenses, if we have take the
opportunity to critically think about the impact that world issues have on each
of us or even consider another perspective that doesn't include race.
As I write this
I'm ending the year in a way totally unexpected (having surgery) but am still
grateful for the last 365 days. Moments like this not only humble me but make
me think about the value of things big and small.
That's what I
encourage each of you to do as the new year approaches...Think. Think before
you act (or react). Think before you rush to pass judgment. Think before you
decide to give up.
This post is
short on purpose because I truly want you to be reflective; not so much on my
words but your own life as it has been given to you this year.
I'm not big on
resolutions but do advocate analysis, discourse, and understanding. I pray that you
have a blessed New Year and that you truly embrace both the challenges and
triumphs that 2015 has to offer.
