Happy New Year

It is really not 
about the day
nor the week
nor the year;
nor the triumph
nor the fear--
what matters is
that we are still
all here—and if
healthy, and yet 
reasonably sane--
that is a blessing... 
and victory!

Happy New Year!

Ain't that the truth. Those who are healthy are so blessed. With health and senses still intact, there is a chance of making better all else. Happy New Year!!
