at this time of year I am reminded of the lines broadcast by King George V1 during the dark period of December 1939. I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year 'Give me a light that I may tread safely into the unknown.' And he replied, 'Go into the darkness and put your hand into the hand of your God That shall be to you brighter than any light and safer than any known way".......

Thank you for sharing those words by King George VI, Michael. I wish you a Peaceful, Healthy, and Happy New Year!!!
