New Year
(page 2)
And now we welcome the new year. Full of things that have never been.
Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right.
I hope that in this year to come, you make mistakes. Because if you are making mistakes, then you are making new things, trying new things, learning, living, pushing yourself, changing yourself, changing your world. You're doing things you've never done before, and more importantly, you're doing something.
The new year stands before us, like a chapter in a book, waiting to be written. We can help write that story by setting goals.
I know. I'm lazy. But I made myself a New Years resolution that I would write myself something really special. Which means I have 'til December, right?
Every New Year is the direct descendant, isn't it, of a long line of proven criminals?
When I was a child in England before the war, Christmas pudding always contained at least one shiny new sixpence, and it was considered a sign of great good luck for the new year to find one in your helping of the pudding.
For those of us with an inward turn of mind, which is another name for melancholy introspection, the beginning of a new year inevitably leads to thoughts about both the future and the past.
The holidays are only overwhelming because it's crunch time. It's like everyone trying to get last-minute things in before the New Year starts.
With the new year comes a refueled motivation to improve on the past one.
If you asked me for my New Year Resolution, it would be to find out who I am.
I never really make solid resolutions. I think if there's something one needs to change with oneself, it doesn't have to happen in the New Year.
