Another year is ending. As one thinks about the year ahead—the opportunities and challenges one will confront, the experiences one will accumulate during the next year of one’s life, the friendships one will sustain or renew—nature often provides vivid reminders of the beauty of life that is around for all who are open to it.

Sometimes, one finds such beauty in the young light of early dawn or the fading light of twilight. Below is a photo roughly 30 minutes before the sun broke the horizon on December 26. The combination of the sun’s angle and the clouds cast sky and water beneath it in purple.

To all, have a happy and rewarding year ahead.
