Memory is a way of holding onto the things you love, the things you are, and the things you never want to lose.
~From the television show The Wonder Years
It’s that time, isn’t it? It’s the time of year where we reflect on auld lang syne, remembering mostly the good of the year. It’s also a time when we are thinking about what lies in the year ahead.
I am grateful for this time. It is always interesting to reflect on what really happened in the year and look forward to a new beginning full of hope and promise.
As I look back on the part of my life that includes Clay Aiken, I realize that 2011 has been a good, good year. Yes, Clay was out of the limelight for a long period of time, but the year was filled with so many amazing things I barely remember that time. Let’s take a look at the year!

This definitely was a very good year ! My favorite events were the TnT Tour, The Wral Interview,
The Gala, and the "new song" – Bring Back My Love. I can't even imagine what 2012 will bring.
Wishing everyone here, and especially Clay – A Very Blessed and Happy New Year!
Wow! Did Clay do all these things this year? Hard to believe! And we didn't think he was out and about much! Not so! Ha, it was just not enough for US!
It's so very easy to forget all these things. I've enjoyed every minute of this year culminating with Wrap for Inclusion and look forward to 2012. I hope it's another wonderful year for Clay and the National Inclusion Project. Thank you musicfan for a very Clayful site.
