Another year about to
begin
The new promise it
ushers in
A fresh start and we
begin at day one
A new page within the
book of life
Another chapter to
write
Naturally, we begin to
sum up all the moments
The good with the bad
mix together
Lessons learned and
mistakes made
Growth within the eyes
of the world
We bare witness to this
every day
Never underestimate the
power of words
A good frank discussion
about the adventures had
Honest and naturally
true
Let your arms embrace
with understanding
Take confidence in the
fact that being afraid is to be human
The cost is forever
weighted
Life's natural balance
Its fate and its
sometimes wicked sense of humor
We love who we love and
should not have to apologize for that...
And some people only
may enter our world briefly
Leaving vibrant
memories in their wake as they leave
Pause within the simple
moments and take it all in
So when our mind fails
in times of pain and darkness
Acknowledge that we are
more than these moments that hold us still
Allow your heart to
seek the help it needs
By placing one foot in
front of the other
Moving from where you
stand, is the act of survival
Its where it takes
root...
So when your eyes,
heart, and emotions flow over the passed year in reflection
Remember always...
We are human
And this is life...
All that you can ever
do is be you
May your confidence
stand strong in the face of loss
Because life can be a
battle fought
Approach it with vigor
and conviction
Give it your life...
Because the reward is
life itself...
And at the end of the
day when the hours come to rest
Sometimes all you can
ever do... is keep breathing.
