On this new day in a new year
I want you to promise yourself to
-laugh when you see the sunrise
-dance in the moonlight even if you
think you cannot dance
-remember your best day ever, then
make a new best day
-hug your loved ones, tell them you
love them
-walk in nature, touch a flower.
A new year brings no promises.
The world contains too much violence, hate.
Yet you, yes, you your precious self
can transform the world,
project joy where you think there is none,
bring laughter somewhere, sometime,
reach out to others,
send positive vibrations into the universe.
You can make a difference,
make the world a better place.
