Isn't that simultaneously the most terrifying and exhilarating thought ever?
A new year. A new year. A new year.
Soak that in. 365 days that have never existed.whoa.
Staring at its pristine beauty, I am intimidated.
What will I make of this new year?
And the antithesis... What will this new year make of me?
I'm sure there will be personal disasters, hurt, heartache, stress, blah days.
Sometimes I am frightened.
What if this is the year I surrender to my faults? What if my heart is bruised? What if my life crumbles?
The uncertainty almost swallows me whole.
In my darkness, I am always always always reminded.
I am not alone.
No man is an island.
I have hands to hold, hugs to give, words to share.
This is the year I will love deeper. I will live stronger. I will rejoice.
So as I sit here in my dimly lit living room, eating his Haribo Raspberries and drinking my cranberry Martinelli's, I embrace the uncertainty. It will be a glorious experiment in faith.
Because this is a beautiful, glowing new year. The best year ever. I just know it.
Happy New Year!
