happy new year!!!

in this new year, we will live one day at a time. we will make each day one of preparation for better things ahead. we will not dwell on the past or the future, only on the present. we will bury fear of the future, all thoughts of unkindness and bitterness, all our dislikes, our resentments, our sense of failure, our disappointments in others and in ourselves, our gloom and our despondency. we will leave all these things buried and go forward, in this new year, into a new life.

when you are sad or worked up...look to the sky. see the clouds still drifting and the birds flying. trust that the goodness of life would go on despite the atrocities that you may be dealing with. look to the sky. we can be free. happy new year!
