How I understand New Year's​

I have always wondered about all the fuss about New Year's Eve. As I age I am beginning to understand a little bit more. At rock-bottom, it is about the desire to let go of the past, find healing, and begin again. It is about mercy, compassion, though I believe that this hope is often unconscious, Yet, we can be driven by the past, making the same mistakes, until we learn to embrace mercy, from God, from others, and in the end, to have mercy on ourselves as well. Which is a form of self-love that is the most healthy and life-affirming......it is also called conversion, an ongoing life long process

Blessed and Happy New Year--Br.MD
