I know I've increasingly despaired over our inept foreign policy apparatus this last year. But I never forget that this is separate from my actual life. The year 2013 was good for me--as all the years have been, really.
Yes, this was a good year for me in so many ways. I hope next year is just as good. It might even be better.
Happy New Year!
Although our foreign policy establishment will likely continue to suck.
