Don't be afraid

A new beginning is always symbolic. Sometimes its the untangling of the mess we make of our lives. At other times its about calming the whirlwind of troubles we get into. Sacrifices are always made in such situations. Some by ourselves, but most by others who aren't a part of the newness.

The heart bleeds for the olden days. Like the smell of an old tome, the memories of the past will always be trapped in the book of our lives. If you miss them, you can turn back to the old pages for a whiff, and a read. But the new pages need to be written, for the book must go on.

Predicaments will hover around you like mendicants all your life. My advice, don't support beggary. Give them a coin of your precious peace and they will ask for two more tomorrow.

Always count the blessings, not the curses. For curses are far too many to number, but the few blessings we get in our lifetime will always be enough to get over all your curses. And make sure, when doing something or refraining from something, that it will not be regretted the day after.

Look for success, be excited at the prospect of great achievements. They give meaning to your efforts. And remember, a new beginning will not always be new. A life is stringed together by a number of new beginnings. Don't be afraid.

Later.

P.S: Happy New Year. And Take care
