week nine. when life gives you grapes, make wine.

in latino culture, we eat twelve grapes for each stroke of the clock on new year's.

each one is supposed to represent each month of the coming year.

the sweet ones signify months of good luck and the sour ones...well, you know.

this year, however, these twelve grapes signify the now: every second that the clock strikes, may we be in the now, in the moment.

 

learning: the past and the future, we cannot control. solo tenemos el presente.

 

how's THAT for a new year's resolution?
