I Am The New Year
I am the promise of tommorrow
I am "what is and can be"
I am the chance to start anew
I am "that dream of peace and tranquility"
Last year has come and gone,I am tommorrow
And with this new promise of tommorrow
Any and all things are possible

WHEN I'M HURTING
It's easier for you to walk away, than it is for you to reach out to me.
It's easier for you to look away, than it is for you to see the depth of my despair.
It's easier for you to look through me, than it is for you to see "me."
It's easier for you to distance yourself, than it is for you to really care.
It's easier for you to hear, than it is for you to listen.
It's easier for you to judge, than it is for you to understand.
It's easier for you to label, than it is to get acquainted.
It's easier for you to bask in your joy, than it is for you to feel my pain.
It's easier for you to bewilder at my mysteries, than it is for you to probe deeply into the depths of my soul.
It's easier for me to look away, than it is to let you see the feelings portrayed through my eyes.
It's easier for me to cry, than it is for me to talk.
It's easier for me to walk alone, than it is to risk rejection.
It's easier for me to push you away, than it is for me to be held.
It's easier for me to distance myself, than it is to trust that you won´t hurt me.
It's easier for me to die, than it is for me to face life's challenges.
It's hard for me to smile when I am hurting.
It's hard for me to talk when you won't understand.
It's hard for me to reach out when I need help the most.
If only you'd really look at me and see who I am.
If only you cared enough to reach out .
If only you'd hold me, without asking why.
If only you'd acknowledge the validity of my feelings.
But it's the easy roads that are most often taken.
And so I hurt alone.
but all that alone for I have one that carries my heart with care and with out dispair
the end
Let It Start With Me
We can't predict the future
Until it becomes the past
We can only speculate
On a different die being cast
There are limitless realities
There is one for every soul
We can only hope that each
Reach their specific goal
No one here can span their years
Without feeling some remorse
Quickly spoken angry words
Also plot our course
Let none of us judge others
Unless we have filled their shoes
We all must answer for ourselves
Each pays their own dues
I pray that more compassion
Spreads through the world we see
But since the world is far too busy Lord
Let it start with me
I Am The New Year
~author unknown
I am the New Year.
I am an unspoiled page in your book of time.
I am your next chance at the art of living.
I am your opportunity to practice
What you have learned about life
During the last twelve months.
All that you sought
And didn't find is hidden in me,
Waiting for you to search it out
With more determination.
All the good that you tried for
And didn't achieve is mine to grant
When you have fewer conflicting desires.
All that you dreamed but didn't dare to do,
All that you hoped but did not will,
All the faith that you claimed but did not have -
These slumber lightly,
Waiting to be awakened by the touch of a strong purpose.
I am your opportunity to renew
Your allegiance to Him who said,
'behold, I make all things new.'
I am the New Year.
