Hope for the Future

This photo of my nephew Sam with his hand lying next to that of his newborn baby is one of my favorites.

The New Year is often represented by a baby, because its story is not yet written; its future is still promising, and its fresh optimism offers hope that the days to come will be better than the ones we leave behind.

Things are looking somewhat grim at the moment; not enough jobs, not enough peace, not enough civility, but while there's still room for improvement, there's also still hope for us all.
