"Unbeknownst to me, when I changed my calendar to August, I entered 'National Back-to-School Month.' As fond as I am of new school supplies
and the scent of new books, not even I knew that this is celebrated for
an entire month.
"Yet it is. . . .
"Those who, a few short months ago, eagerly lay aside the trappings of
the school year and embraced their time away, are now engaged in the
quest for the perfect new supplies, clothing, electronics, shoes, books,
and dormitory accoutrements to begin a new year and celebrate a new
start."
In a recent commentary, writer/Professor Lucia A. Silecchia
reflected on the importance of recognizing different types of new beginnings in our lives.
