Frenetic ... Divide

Today's word is "frenetic" ... fruh-NET-ik ... frantic, frenzied. (dictionary.com).

Divide
The new year is just visible;
     the frenetic pace of Yuletide 
          is slowing.
In these moments in between
     the old and new,
Our minds roll through the
     pictures in our heads of
          what has been.
We evaluate them one by one,
     wondering if our choices 
           were the best we could have made,
Yet knowing we are never truly
     perfect in our decisions.
And that those made without the
     wisdom of God, have been made
          in the vain madness of our own arrogance.
Maybe this new year will bring the 
      humbleness that leads to truth,
            and we will make friends with
                  our reason and our faith.
