Jan 5th, 2011

January 5th, 2011


Sometimes, it's important to feel pain to remember 
          why at all you feel,
Sometimes, it's essential to take a step back from what you have

          to see what you need,
Sometimes, the words are right in front of you 

          but you've forgotten how to read,
Sometimes, no matter how hard you try 

          you can't tell what's fiction what's real.


In a life full of ups and downs, when the downs are here, 
          remember the ups are near,
In a life full of people who come and go, some will stay, 
          some will leave, after they impact you in their own way,
In a life full of places you'll live and see, for all the places you will roam, 

          very few will allow you to call them home,
Life itself is an experiment, some beakers you'll break, 

          and some new discoveries you'll make.

When you feel tired and alone,
When you've dodged all that's been thrown,
For a moment, feel the victory, feel the loss,
And then, start a new day, yesterday's been tossed.



The events that occur in life,
Sometimes we forget to learn and grow,
The events that occur in life,
Sometimes we forget how to let go.



The more we push forward, the more we'll have to face friction,
Those who have mastered it, will be prepared for flection,
Does not mean we reduce velocity or pause acceleration,
Does mean we differentiate between response and reaction.



It's easy to get caught up in the details or think just of 2010,
It's important to take a step back to assess what just that one year meant,


While keeping a glance in the rearview mirror is constructive,
Let not your past keep you more than that any captive,


2011 is a new year and it's here, for a new start and a new path,
On your goals keep your sight, karma is right, the future is bright.
