Another year passes, punctuated by my late Dec. birthday spent today in low-key fashion in the company of family (featuring special guest Grogu, painting courtesy of my fantastically creative friend M). πππ
While it's tempting to complain about getting older while facing an increasingly uncertain future, it feels far better to be mindful and grateful for what I've continued to be blessed with, namely my health, my aging but still loving parents (and their health), my brother and his caring family, my incredible friends both near and far who I've leaned on often throughout the pandemic, my day career and my coworkers who continue to support and rally together, the strength of my personal well of faith, and definitely all the incredible people I've had the opportunity, privilege and pleasure of shooting with this past year. πͺπΌπͺπ½πͺπΎπΈπΉ
All said, I'm a rich man without needing to be wealthy, and fortunate to have and to hold what I've earned and what I've been given by providence. To you, I wish constant good health, true and lasting love of any/every kind, and the bright possibility of hope and joy in anything/everything you seek. π―π€
