January first. The beginning of a new year. As far back in history as wecan tell, people have celebrated the start of a new year.
The people of ancient Egypt began their new year in summer. That is whenthe Nile River flooded its banks, bringing water and fertility to the land. Thepeople of ancient Babylonia and Persia began their new year on Marchtwenty-first, the first day of spring. And, some Native American Indians begantheir new year when the nuts of the oak tree became ripe. That was usually inlate summer.
Now, almost everyone celebrates New Years Day on January first. Today, asbefore, people observe the New Years holiday in many different ways.
The ancient Babylonians celebrated by forcing their king to give up hiscrown and royal clothing. They made him get down on his knees and admit all themistakes he had made during the past year.
This idea of admitting wrongs and finishing the business of the old year isfound in many societies at new years. So is the idea of making resolutions. Aresolution is a promise to change your ways. To stop smoking, for example. Or toget more physical exercise.
Noise-making is another ancient custom at the new year. The noise isconsidered necessary to chase away the evil spirits of the old year. Peoplearound the world do different things to make a lot of noise. They may hit stickstogether. Or beat on drums. Or blow horns. Or explode fireworks.
Americans celebrate the New Year in many ways.
Most do not have to go to work or school. So they visit family and friends.Attend church services. Share a holiday meal. Or watch new years parades ontelevision. Two of the most famous parades are the Mummers Parade inPhiladelphia, Pennsylvania, and the Rose Parade in Pasadena, California. Bothhave existed for many years.
Americans also watch football on television on New Years Day. Most years,university teams play in special holiday games.
For those who have been busy at work or school, New Years may be a day ofrest. They spend the time thinking about, and preparing for, the demands of thenew year.
for the love of my fatherover the years, i never thought of my father asbeing very emotional, and he never was, at least not in front of me. even thoughhe was 68 years old and only five-foot-nine, while i was six feet and 260pounds, he seemed huge to me. i always saw him as being that staunchdisciplinarian who rarely cracked a smile. my father never told me he loved mewhen i was a child, and i never held it against him. i think that all i reallywanted was for my dad to be proud of me. in my youth, mom always showered mewith “i love you’s” every day. so i really never thought about not hearing itfrom my dad. i guess deep down i knew that he loved me, he just never said it.come to think of it, i don’t think i ever told him that i loved him, either. inever really thought about it much until i faced the reality of death.
on november 9th, 1990, i received word that my national guard unit was beingactivated for operation desert shield. we would convoy to fort ben harrison,indiana, and then directly to saudi arabia. i had been in the guard for 10 yearsand never dreamed that we would be activated for a war, even though i knew itwas what we trained for. i went to my father and gave him the news. i couldsense he was uneasy about me going. we never discussed it much more, and eightdays later i was gone.
i have several close relatives who have been in the military during war time.my father and uncle were in world war ii, and two brothers and a sister servedin vietnam. while i was extremely uneasy about leaving my family to serve mycountry in a war zone, i knew it was what i had to do. i prayed that this wouldmake my father proud of me. my father is very involved in the veterans offoreign wars organization and has always been for a strong military. i was noteligible to join the veterans of foreign wars because i had not been in a warzone—a fact that always made me feel like i didn’t measure up in my father’seyes. but now here i was, his youngest son, being shipped off to a foreign land9,000 miles away, to fight a war in a country we had barely heard of before.
on november 17, 1990, our convoy of military vehicles rolled out of ruralgreenville, michigan. the streets were filled with families and well-wishers tosee us off. as we approached the edge of town, i looked out the window of mytruck and saw my wife, kim, my children, and mom and dad. they were all wavingand crying, except for my father. he just stood there, almost like a stonestatue. he looked incredibly old at that moment. i don’t know why, he justdid.
i was gone for that thanksgiving and missed our family’s dinner. there wasalways a crowd, with two of my sisters, their husbands and children, plus mywife and our family. it disturbed me greatly that i couldn’t be there. a fewdays after thanksgiving i was able to call my wife, and she told me somethingthat has made me look at my father in a different way ever since.
my wife knew how my father was about his emotions, and i could hear her voicequaver as she spoke to me. she told me that my father recited his usualthanksgiving prayer. but this time he added one last sentence. as his voicestarted to crack and a tear ran down his cheek, he said, “dear lord, pleasewatch over and guide my son, rick, with your hand in his time of need as heserves his country, and bring him home to us safely.” at that point he burstinto tears. i had never seen my father cry, and when i heard this, i couldn’thelp but start to cry myself. my wife asked me what was wrong. after regainingmy composure, i said, “i guess my father really does love me.”
eight months later, when i returned home from the war, i ran over and huggedmy wife and children in a flurry of tears. when i came to my father, i embracedhim and gave him a huge hug. he whispered in my ear, “i’m very proud of you,son, and i love you.” i looked that man, my dad, straight in the eyes as i heldhis head between my hands and i said, “i love you too, dad,” and we embracedagain. and then together, both of us cried.
ever since that day, my relationship with my father has never been the same.we have had many deep conversations. i learned that he’s always been proud ofme, and he’s not afraid to say “i love you” anymore. neither am i. i’m justsorry it took 29 years and a war to find it out.

Some say love is consistant with passion, the desire of conquer one another with charisma and charm. While others criticize its legimacy, and argues that it is derived from none other than sexual attractions of basic animalistic instincts.
Love make people do crazy things, for example a girl who loves you so much that she cuts off you penis while you're asleep and toss it out the window or flush it down the toilet.
Friendship is a load of shit, a make-believe entity just like love. Friends are people you talk to from time to time, they are people who comes at you with smiles and hugs; but the second you turn your back on them, they will stab you from behind and slit your throat like a faggot that you are.
Family, our love for one another is beyond doubts. However, we're obligated to take care of our families, especially parents. Seriously, who else can they depend on by the time when their bodies are no longer responding well, and you have to change their adult diapers daily.
