rX THE Inst .night of the old
year, people celebrate (some
times more enthusiastically than
wisely), welcoming the new yeur
with demonstrutions of joy.
Why?
(In attempting to answer that
question, remember, please, that
each year that passes adds one
year to the age of every person
living, and ouch added year brings
4 us that much nearer to the un
solved mystery that lies at the
end of life.)
So why do we celebrate the
passing of tlmo, ns marked by the
ending of the old year and the be
ginning of the new?
T'HE answer, probably, lies In
this proverb: "Hopo springs
eternal in the human breast." If
things have been bad with us this
year, we hope that next year they
will be good. If things have been
good with ns, wo hope that next
year they will be better.
And so on. Always wo look to the
future ns holding somelliing better
than the past has held.
Hence we welcome tho passing
nf time regardless of tho fuct
lhat each hour that passes brings
ns-.neuroi; to that final door in the
wall that leads to tho unknown.
WE SEEK to pry Into the future.
and there are few of us indeed
that have not at seme lime cross
