Resolutions
Abstract
A fresh beginning,
Like a new breath of air,
In Nature's nostalgic atmosphere!
New birth.
New beginnings.
New thoughts and ideas.
New dreams.
No matter how thinly stretched and petered out,
Or how old things made you become
Unfounded by the dumbfounded,
Begin anew!
It's like turning over a new leaf,
Declaring and deciding: "It's time
To bring out what's down inside.
Searching the self, the soul.
Energizing the spirit-energy,
Renewing the mind.
Refreshing the soul to connect
To positive inputs from sources like
Nature, people, environment.
Desiring a change from the "old".
Wanting a change from the mundane.
Casting out whatever impedes and cause to fall
Backwards instead of moving forwards.
Finding a new path along the journey.
Creeping, forcing and willing the self
Holistically towards a set goal; inch by inch.
Long steps in the past became
Noticed and were shortened
Or perhaps made not to move in
Any direction at all!
Like the "stump of Jesse"
Which grew into a large
And productive tree, Rise!
Become new and productive
Like the spring season.
If your "tree" became a "stump".
It hadn't really died!
Let it be planted by the "still waters"
With roots deep and winding around rocks
Below, like a"green olive tree";
That finds water for sustenance.
In this manner, have Faith in your Dreams
and Hopes.
Fly like an eagle to the farthest point,
Towards the dream that God has willed for you!
