AS we approach the close of this year, we are given a valuable opportunity to pause amid the busyness of life and take stock of our journey. The turning of a year is more than a change of dates on a calendar; it is an invitation to look back with honesty, look inward with humility, and look ahead with hope.

By embracing four simple but powerful practices – rejoice, reflect, reconcile and resolve – we can bring deeper meaning to the year’s end and prepare ourselves for a more purposeful future.
