Year 2016. Does it feel any different? Hmm…

I hope it will go a lot slower. I have a lot to start and finish.

I hope it will bring happiness to you and yours. And me and mine.

I hope there will be more peace and freedom. And there will be less injustice and inequality.

I hope a lot more LOVE will happen. Amor Vincit Omnia. Love Conquers All.

Now, excuse me while I consume this.
