I actually had to look up “Riddance” for this one.
-
said to express relief at being free of a troublesome or unwanted person or thing.
Sure, I’ve used the term before, but I wasn’t too sure how to spell it correctly. Seeing it in correctly spelt, it all made sense to me. Then seeing that there is an end of the year event held for the past seven years in Time Square.
I have quite a few things that I am happy to say good-bye to from 2013, but admittedly, I have a lot to be thankful for too. I do have my health; my wife with whom I share my life; living in a country not currently at war, having comfortable shelter with heat and fresh water. I can afford food on my plate. I have family, friends and a fantastic community of which I am so fortunate to be a part.
On this last day of 2013, I’d like to wish you and your family Love, Heath and Happiness. I look forward to sharing more in the New Year.
Cheers,
Scott
Incidentally, if you click on the Good Riddance image above, their is a video of the event and this years winners, including a 3-year-old boy who survived cancer.
