A New Beginning

New Year's Eve has always been a time for looking back to the past, and more decisively, forward to the coming year. It's a time to reflect on the changes we want to make and resolve to follow through on those changes. 

The first day of a new year is like standing at one end of a river that you wish to cross. But, you cannot see to the other side and you have no idea where that river would end. And so you travel forward, setting a clear objective that you want the experience of moving across to be a pleasant one. You think of that it is the journey and not the end that actually matters and you begin to enjoy the gentle wind upon your face and the sweet sounds of the birds flying above and the water flowing below. Our expedition through life is very much like this. We have no clue where it will take us sometimes but we just need to keep walking because that is the vital thing.

And so as I woke up, I felt like, sharing my thought about the start of a New Year. I hope you enjoy it and that you have a beautiful day and a spectacular New Year.
