Why would this come to me on the last day of the year? From a favorite writer? And just when I’m feeling that nice artificial hope of a giant lit ball dropping on a tall metal pole?

From Wendell Berry “No, No, There Is No Going Back”

“No, no, there is no going back.
Less and less you are
that possibility you were.
More and more you have become
those lives and deaths
that have belonged to you.
You have become a sort of grave
containing much that was
and is no more in time, beloved
then, now, and always.
And so you have become a sort of tree
standing over a grave.
Now more than ever you can be
generous toward each day
that comes, young, to disappear
forever, and yet remain
unaging in the mind.
Every day you have less reason
not to give yourself away.”

Also fascinating to see fashions and contestants change over the years.
