A Brand New Day

The memories that first bring the laughter, then sadness.  To remember the joy and the eventual regret.  Yet the lives we live here are fleeting.  We are to examine our choices, then make adjustments, to find that diamond in the rough, and the sacrifices that will cleave away the excess.  The investment in loss, that is the hallmark of our redemption.  A chance for that boy made out of wood, to become real.  To live lives of awakening, from our long sleep, to the dawn of a brand new day!
