Ohhh.
A new year.
New opportunities…
New goals….
New success…
Or is it just a new year?
Is it just another day on the calendar,
Another grade in the book?
Is it just another paycheck,
Another bridge card,
Another vacation?

What is so special
About the New Year?
We pause for a moment,
Reflect on our lives-
Create a goal for ourselves.
But we continue to live
Day by day
Step by step
And second by second.
For me, at least, the new year is jut that-
A new year.
Just like a new day, or a new week,
A new year
Is just another year.
