You know you have some, we all do. Granted, some seem to have more than others. Is it because they exhaust them, some appear to be too willing to share their grief? When so many others, will bottle it up and without a leak, the smallest of shaddow will egnite an explosion of rage, or rant, or retaliation. How calm those can seem unless you are around when it catches alight.
You wouldn't be harboring any resentment towards anyone or anything per chance would you? Sometimes masked in blame, you gurgle and ripple when a reminder flickers before you: a transit bus sign, a song soothes you before it reminds you of a time, when things were less complicated.
The burden of security. Laying in our minds in varying capacities. To one it may mean safety, while distinctions apart: a warm bed to sleep in, a healthy meal to eat, the last drag on the cigarrette and the final withdrawal of a needle. Where being clothed is always a choice and having clothes to wash and change is always a blessing instead of a chore.
To have hands to pick out vegetables or fruit because we are grocery shopping. The littlest things gone missing. New ones to be discovered.
Let 2016 be a time of peace. A peace of mind, a peace sign, a peaceful time. Void of explosions, where those in need are given safety and men and women are only friends.
Rejoice in the peace sign. Let it be renewed symbolism of hope. Those who want * P E A C E * have their wishes granted. Let art and music along with all means of expression carry that one unified theme * P E A C E * to you, to me, to your neighbour, to mine, to your church, to my prayers, to your job and all that entails: be paid, love what you do, help others become better.
2016 brings about a freshness and spirit. Avoid casting a noose around your neck called "Resolutions" that are high, wide and difficult to reach. Instead find steps you can make in that ultimate destination. Health equals exercise, mental health, security, love, vegetables, fruit and food we can learn to like.
Replace "Resolutions" with absolutions. Things that are possible for you to accomplish one minute, one hour, one day, one month, arriving at another year. You have cast aside the negative in 2015's wind, to allow the sun to shine on optimism, hope, pride, and opportunity.
Look into your left hand. It is almost time to blow the molecules left of 2015 away. Your right hand trying to force you to look ahead. Don't look down, look up. The horizon is changing with you at the wheel. Of your destiny.
