NCOC Weekly Discussion

Happy New Year from NCoC

December 31, 2008
In our daily lives, the passing of time often goes unnoticed - cell phones, PDA’s, work, and family all demand increments of our time and so our days go by sliced and diced into thousands of unremarkable moments. For many of us, as the year comes to a close, time (and the approaching year) take on a special significance. We look at the New Year as an opportunity for reflection, for tallying up what we’ve accomplished, and for outlining what remains undone.
