The new year is beginning to make its way around the globe, from the International Dateline in the Pacific Ocean through Asia and over the Indian Ocean to the shores of Africa in just a few hours.
From there it will travel across this vast continent and on to America, where it is certain to be a momentous and fateful year of political decisions.
The elections in the United States are but one element in a disconcerting mix.
The headlines from everywhere seem to conspire to shake our confidence and undermine our hopes for a happy and peaceful 2008.
And yet the new year always brings with it the promise of a fresh start, a clean slate, resolutions and resolve.
May we all find the path to peace, humility and acceptance in service to others and our planet.
Happy New Year.

Happy New year to you and the ARC team Louise! I still miss you all and think of you every day. I will have to try to find my way back to Rwanda soon I think! Much love, Ann
