Such a funny old fashioned phrase, and one we only think about this time of year..course most of us don't even know the words to the song as I realized last night, watching some fireworks with friends, cheering in the new year. But from what I have heard of the song, it's a time of looking back and being thankful for old friends.
And friends are really what we're here for, you know? Service, work, life in general--it's cliche to say it, but they don't mean a thing if you don't have people to share them with--people to laugh with you and at you when you need it, to encourage you and to tell you that everything is going to be okay, God is still in control and life is still is good even when we can't see how its so.
And if you have people like that in your life, then years like the one I just had.. they don't seem bad. They seem.. stretching, and surprising and blessed.
Happy New Year friends.. auld and new.
