Though I’m late to this party, I think I’ve found “my theme” for the new year. Recently, two news anchors I watch every morning switched places around the table. Seeing the other sides of their faces, the slightly nuanced changes in their profiles and hairlines made me see them with new eyes. They both looked startlingly different to me. I am trying to apply that simple shift to other situations in my life. For instance, I used to think it was cheating to use a computer while solving crossword puzzles. Now, I see it as research from which I will learn new words and phrases. A slight shift, but so far it appears to have a powerful reward.
