I LOVE the old hymns more & more every year. I’ve realized in recent months, maybe years, I yearn for & take great comfort in the annual, cyclical traditions. Especially the music.

I see them & hear them different now; the hymns & carols.

Is it age? Maturity?? Experience? Or is it the gift of realization; a divine revelation?

Who knows. Doesn’t matter why. I just know these songs, these melodies, these sacred ancient words have been galvanized by time & aged to perfection. They reside & resound like a fine wine or bourbon set patiently in just the right conditions. With similarity we keep them on the shelf & reach for them during only the most sacred moments of celebration. We use only the finest glassware & best vessel to behold our highest presence and intention.

Whatever’s in your glass… let it be held and toasted with joy and love that warms your heart and ignites your soul to sing! And let’s sing that warmth, joy and love into the air TOGETHER to celebrate all things new on the brand new year.

Peace, Love & Joy

Daniel
