Me and My Crew: A New Year

Always Have A Dream

Always have a dream
Forget about the days when its been cloudy,
but don't forget your hours in the sun.
Forget about the times you've been defeated,
but don't forget the victories you've won.
Forget about mistakes that you can't change now,
but don't forget the lessons that you've learnt.
Forget about misfortunes you encounter,
but don't forget the times you luck has turned.
Forget about the days when you've been lonely,
but don't forget the friendly smiles you've seen.
Forget about the plans that didn't seem to work out right,
but don't forget to always have a dream.

A New Year

A New Year to try and start fresh:

Try things you've never done;

Go places you've never gone (which could be right outside your door);

Take risks even when you're afraid of the big unknown;

Write that letter to someone you've been thinking about (Yes, snail-mail, it used to mean a lot to people, and still does to some!!);

Try a new recipe, a new food;

Sit down and color with your child, or read a book (life goes by too quick!);

Catch yourself when you tell them to be quiet while your watching the news (the news will still be there tomorrow, your child will be just that much older!);

Enjoy it when people want to spend time with you (A lot of people don't have anyone or are too hateful for others to want to be around);

Enjoy being loved, and love all that much more;

Pamper yourself once in a while (buy yourself a book, a music CD)

Don't worry about what the experts say, do they really know it all anyway?!

Live one day at a time: I'd rather forget the past, not worry about the future (cuz I can't change it anyway), and treat today like the present it is!

Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and fun ringing in the New Year! I had an awesome time spending it with all my loved ones.

Take care and smile!! ;0)
