Thank you all for your support this year, and for the kind wishes that I've received from many of you.
The past year has been difficult for many people in the world, and next year unfortunately promises to be a lot worse.

The Christmas season is a good time to count one's blessings. "I complained that I had no shoes, and then I met a man who had no feet," it says in the Old Testament. It's also a good time to think about the future.
Correction: A web site reader has pointed out to me that this phrase does not come from the Old Testament. It comes from The Gulistan, a landmark poetic work written by the Persian poet Saadi in 1259. The phrase is derived from the following text in Story 19: ". . . once, when my feet were bare, and I had not the means of obtaining shoes. I came to the chief of Kufah in a state of much dejection, and saw there a man who had no feet. I returned thanks to God and acknowledged his mercies, and endured my want of shoes with patience . . ." (Paragraph added on 15-Jan-2008.)
As I frequently say on this web site: Treasure the time you have left, and use it to prepare yourself, your family, your community and your nation.
This is a good time to remind you that you can write to me with comments and questions. It may take a few days to get back to you, but so far I've been doing OK keeping up with the e-mail messages. Use either an e-mail message, or the "Comment" link at the top of this page.
If you want to have a more open debate, you can do so in the "Objections to Generational Dynamics" thread of the Fourth Turning forum.
I hope that everyone is doing well. To all of you, have a great
Christmas holiday and a great New Year.
