Why start new projects, begin new diet and fitness regimes, turn over a new leaf, on New Year's Day? Did writing down your resolutions work last year, or the year before? Did those new year wishes come true?
Don't we have the potential to change any day? Can't we start in the middle of the day or in the evening instead of the morning? Can't we start a new project on a Tuesday or a Friday? A new start can happen at any moment.
It's funny how we like to save starting for a special moment. The special moment comes, the clock strikes midnight, what happens?
I think we're wishing for something magical to happen, for some good luck fairy to wave her wand to cast a spell that will change things, make them better. Midnight will strike and I'll be magically thinner, richer, happier.
This new year can be different, but what are you willing to do to change things? Or, are you simply wishing?
I wish you happiness in the new year. And, I will wave my wand and do my best to give you some happy moments every Monday night.
I love that choir is on Monday nights. Every Monday is special and holds the potential for magic.
The potential is there everyday.
ReplyDeleteWe like the extra push or a beginning and end.
Yes. A little help, a little extra push, can be good. And, if it comes from a calendar then it's uncomplicated.
