It is always best to start at the beginning. A new year brings new hope, new ideas, new aspirations, and perhaps a greater perspective on the things we see. It is a time when we all celebrate a birthday, and as such all become a year older together. (and you thought that sharing your birthday with someone else detracted from your celebration!) We are a year wiser, and also a year closer to dying- both of which seem to prod us into self-reflection and measurement.
Last year: I had no aspirations and made to resolutions accordingly. This year: I have aspirations to evolve in mind and spirit, which subsequently involves physical sacrifices. But I have come to the conclusion that, as we uphold this single day as a day of renewal, we should also realize that each day is another opportunity to grow and evolve. It is an opportunity to plow the unfruitful soil under and begin to plant anew, with hopes that this year will produce a plentiful crop, even so much that others may enjoy the harvest.
May your soil be rich and produce a fruitful harvest this new year.
