2015. . .In This New Year

In this new year. . .

comes another

twelve months

of unspoiled pages

in your book of life

so practice what

you learned about

life from the past

twelve months and

know that all that

you seek is hidden

in the upcoming

twelve months that

wait ahead for you

so search it out

with determination.

 

In this new year. . .

there will be a

bridge upon which

you will stand and

you must know that

only you are in

command and what

you do in these next

twelve months rests

only on you.  

 

Have the courage to

embrace your dreams,

the strength to sacrifice

for them and the

determination to

fulfill them.

 

In this new year. . .

choose love and

goodness and mercy

and compassion as well

as strength and courage

along with the deepest

wisdom and the highest

truth.

 

In this new year. . .

do not worry about

whether the sun will rise

again, just be prepared

to enjoy it.
