And You Asked Me What I Want This Year

And I try to make this kind and clear,
Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days.
'Cause I don't need boxes wrapped in strings,
And desire and love and empty things,
Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days.

So take these words, and sing out loud,
'Cause everyone, is forgiven now,
'Cause tonight's the night the world begins again.

'Better Days' - Goo Goo Dolls

While there is inherently nothing different about this day and the ones preceeding it, I am, as I expected, feeling that things are headed in the right direction. The book on 2007 is closed. You will not find top ten lists, or a recount of that which happened, as if you are here, you probably already know what it would cover.

It has started off quite well. A nice night with friends, a surprise late night invitation, a decent day at work, and even a step toward reconciliation. I have no reason to think the rest of this week won't go just as well.

As for everyone else, I can only wish that you and yours are able to have as good of a 2008 as I expect to.
