Beginning Afresh

1 Muharram 1439

In my little corner of the world I have the odd privilege of enjoying no fewer than three New Years. That in itself is a reminder of a much, much bigger world beyond. And I'm fortunate enough to be allowed the kind of choices that enable me to make a new beginning with each new year. Heck, every day offers such possibilities.

I'm perhaps too much aware of enjoying my good fortune - for that's what it is. A lucky accident of time & geography. Today my prayers are for those who haven't had that kind of luck. Perhaps this year the tide might turn for some of them.
