Hello January

Hello January, As my Dad would say, "Hey there, stranger!" Do you recognize me? I think maybe I'm different from last year Hello January, This year I learned what freedom meant And that there is not only "freedom to;" additionally There is "freedom from;" it's seems rare, to be truly free Hello January, This year I decided the meaning of life is passion; The best of humanity are not the successful or wealthy But instead the ones who have passion in their actions Hello January, This year I learned how to pray; I opened a door To look for myself and ended up finding God And then, of course... I found something to pray for Hello January, July introduced me to the love of my life And he's absolutely beautiful, and completely, Perfectly... mine Hello January, I can't begin to tell you all I've learned But I learned to play the ukulele Since it's the happiest sound you've ever heard
