I feel like the new year is like the first page of a new book...you just never know where it will take you. While the last several years have been quite awful...especially our country's health and our divisions in thinking...I always feel that good will prevail and I'm hopeful again!

Always so well stated. Thank you, Mr Rather, for giving context to another extraordinary year, and for helping us keep the chaos —along with the goodness— in perspective. You’re a credit to your profession and a jewel in our national treasure box.
