Happy New Year! Although I am not Jewish, I love celebrating all new beginnings. 
It's a chance to reflect on how we got here, release whatever is holding us back, and to reset our compass for where we'd like to go from here...
It reminds me that forward motion naturally happens in spirals and not in straight lines, from the movement of heavenly bodies, to eddies in flowing water, to tropical storms, or spokes on a bicycle wheel. The path forward is rarely direct and often returns on itself, so we can look back as we continue onward.
