A New Year: The Threshold

There is a particular stillness that belongs only to the last day of the year.
Not celebration, not regret — but a pause that feels architectural, like standing in a doorway between rooms, one foot on worn stone, the other hovering above a floor not yet known.

Much is said about endings. Even more about beginnings.
Far less about thresholds — the narrow spaces where neither applies.

This year does not end for me with declarations or promises. It ends with recognition.
