In December 1982, on a visit home from Japan, I greeted my new nephew, Ryan.
In December 2012, I greeted his son.
So quickly the generations slip by! (This is a good thing, evolution getting personal.)
My nephews and niece, and now my grandnephews and grandniece, re-affirm my faith in the rightness of it all. They give me hope for the future.
Witnessing the procession of life, I stand in awe and wonder, grateful to have been part of it.
