Why do we need resolutions

January 1st, 2008 | by Vijayaraghav |



 

Why

 

Why do we need resolutions?  

 

When the pendulum

struck the last blow

time stand still

for a second

New Year has arrived

Once again

Like a reincarnation

Like a new melody

scintillating our nerves

Like a phoenix

rising out of ashes

Like a snake sheds

its skin 

 

Happy New Year 

 

There may be clouds of anxiety

looming around

No need to think

about the forbidden sky

No need to wait

for an apostle

No need to panic 

 

Dream lions!

to live in a valley

where foxes are more frequent 

 

Why do we need resolutions? 

 

A brimming hope with a zest

for love, friendship,

energy, happiness and peace

is taking momentum

Is that not enough?    

 

Go all out…….. 

 

All the best.

    Hey, it’s nice picture. I have stopped making resolutions for a long time! I just live life as it comes and make sure that I am gentle and loving to myself! No more sacrifices and pleasing others!

    New Year is the time to bid farewell to the old year and welcome the coming year. It is the time to forget and get past memories that are no longer useful or worth pondering upon. It is the time for new beginnings and new starts in life. New Year has a me
