Here we are, on the first day of a new year and a new decade.
It's completely arbitrary, of course, that we mark this day with resolutions, promises for the future and plans to start anew. Yesterday or tomorrow, last month or five months from now --- what difference, really, would it make if we made our pledges now or then?
I guess it's good to have a goal, a time set aside, a catalyst for change.
So Happy New Year. I'm going to spend a little time creating a better me, being the change I want to see in this world and working to extend some of life's blessings to those who see too little joy, love and acceptance.
Hey, it's better than another useless pledge to lose weight.
Here's a song about renewing love, from one of my favorite musicians. John Lennon was one of my favorite people, too. Snarky bastard, rebel genius.
Let's make the most of our time.
I'm starting over.
Maybe I'll get it right this time.
John Lennon - (Just Like) Starting Over
Our life together is so precious together
We have grown, we have grown
Although our love is still special
Let's take a chance and fly away somewhere alone
It's been too long since we took the time
No one's to blame, I know time flies so quickly
But when I see you, darling
It's like we both are falling in love again
It'll be just like starting over, starting over
Everyday we used to make it, love
Why can't we be making love nice and easy?
It's time to spread our wings and fly
Don't let another day go by, my love
It'll be just like starting over, starting over
Why don't we take off alone?
Take a trip somewhere far, far away
We'll be together all alone again
Like we used to in the early days
Well, well, well, darling
It's been too long since we took the time
No one's to blame, I know time flies so quickly
But when I see you, darling
It's like we both are falling in love again
It'll be just like starting over, starting over
Our life together is so precious together
We have grown, we have grown
Although our love is still special
Let's take a chance and fly away somewhere
Starting over.
