All Night Vigil

Well here we are again.  New Year's Eve. 2019.  Time to celebrate an end and a beginning.
.
On the eve of an event, vigils were begun.  They were church related observations to pray and meditate in preparation for the holy day.  In other words, they expelled darkness and welcomed Light.  They watched for evil and countered it with good.

Vigils vary as to purpose at hand.  They also might be different in length.

Originally they were all night for protection.  It's like riding a storm til it passes.

In mostly modern times, it's probably just a church service.  People might go to their homes and continue.  There are just not many who do an allnighter.

What I hope lingers amidst the revelry is to see to the safety of all.  This is on all levels and doesn't detract from the fun  In fact, it enhances life.

Safety?  Personal, social, national usw.  Springboard for Liberty and thus the exposure of tyranny.

Hey, have fun.  With fun comes responsibility -s-.
