Year of the Snake

I can’t speak for your life, but mine has changed dramatically over the years, depending upon how few or how many years I choose to use as the vantage point for my reflections. I’m allowed to do that now that I have reached an age at which it is reasonable to conclude that I have less time ahead of me than I do behind me. I choose to greet it with amusement today and a certain smug satisfaction that I’ve had enough action to proclaim my life a raging success.
