New Year’s Reality Check

Another year, another chanceTo start our lives anew;

This time we’ll leap old barriersTo have a real breakthrough.

We’ll take one little stepAnd then we’ll take one more,Our unlimited potentialWe’ll totally explore.

We’ll show off all our talentsEveryone will be inspired;

(Whew! While I’m writing this,I’m getting very tired.)

We’ll give up all bad habits;We’ll read and learn a lot,All our goals will be accomplished,Sigh...or maybe not.

Oh well, Happy New Year anyway!
