A great message here, my friend -- but, man, who could have guessed what kind of trials (and lessons) 2020 would have in store for us just a few short months after? Perhaps a reset button is in order ... lol.

Thank you, Timothy. You are right, my fortune teller's globe did not reveal all!! But even so, I will still echo my final line: "Have no fear!" Regards // paul

Hi Paul, I love this December rhyme, how quickly a year passes - 4 days away from a New Year. Scary but true and nothing we can do about it, go back in time,I wouldn't want to, happy where I'm at, the rest we leave to Him. May 2020 be a blessed, happy and healthy year for you and your lovely family. Warm regards and hugs Jenny.
