| Black-eyed peas for New Year's Eve at Agnes', Opelousas, Louisiana. December 2018. |
Yeah, OK, so we had the black-eyed peas on the last day of the old year instead of the first day of the new. But our kind hostess, Agnes, is from France, and it was already the new year in France.
We eat the black-eyed peas to invite prosperity in the new year.
I am already so prosperous.
I am prosperous in:
- People who love me
- Good friends
- Good health
- Joyful experience of dance
- Adolescent dreams come true
- Freedom to roam as my heart pleases
- Shelter, food, clothing

In this December 2018, I am between the old and new year, and also between my Missouri Year and my upcoming Tucson Year.
