What's Another Year?

What's another year?
What's another month?
What's another week?
What's another day?
What's another hour?
What's another minute?

A minute can change your mind
An hour can be a long time at a bus stop
A day can be dreary or can be life changing
A week can often save a life
A month can give time to assess a situation
A year is always a new beginning.


Happy New Year to all my friends.
