New Year Here

The new year is here
it will bring joy
sadness
failure
fear
love
and success
life will still test the best
expect nothing less
make changes for the right
head in the right direction or the left
throw a pebble in the water
avoiding perfection
to cross another river section
it is deep it will take time
2018 I made it out fine
2019 take what is mine
fix myself so I can help others climb
I now see the sign
there is light at the end of the tunnel
I am no longer blind. -TA
