A New Year, Another Chance


I don't really like looking back.... as they say, something might be gaining on you! However, it can be useful to look back at the year that was ... Jib Jab has an amusing retrospect. It was a tough year for political humor, but I suppose if we don't laugh, we would cry. We live in a fragile time.
This NPR story asks the question, if we could go back to January of last year, knowing what we know now, how would the year have been different? The year, as seen through the eyes of a cancer patient, gives us all a moment of pause.
The author concludes he would rather face the uncertainty of the year ahead than relive the past year. I hopes he gets the chance.
