Starting Over

To me, life is a canvas, vast and wide,
A tapestry of moments, side by side.
Its edges fray, its colors sometimes dim,
Yet every thread, every hue, is a hymn.
 
It’s a song of joy, a lullaby of pain,
A symphony of sunshine, and of rain.
Some notes are clear, others hard to trace,
Yet every one is in its right place.
 
Like pages in a book yet to be read,
Or stories that live inside of our head.
We weave our tales, some bitter, some sweet,
Each step we take makes our heart complete.
 
The journey’s not just about the end,
But every twist, every turn, and every bend.
For in the search, the seeking, the quest,
We find our essence and become our very best.
 
Life is an adventure, wild and free,
A dance of fate and destiny.
I choose to embrace it, come what may,
For in its rhythm, I find my way.

On the same note as last week’s New Year poem, I am excited to see where my journey of being me will take me. I am planning on starting over this year. Actually, I’m planning on starting over every day. Each one offers me a chance to continue with my journey toward destiny, and I plan to make the most of it.

The path ahead is unpredictable and only manifests as I continue to take steps. Even though I might not enjoy where I am now, I know that things will change. They always do. I just have to wait and see.

I don’t know if they will be changing for better or worse; I just know they will change. All I have to do is be patient as I make my way. There is so much to learn and experience, even if it is unpleasant. No matter what happens, as long as my heart is beating, things can change in an instant. That is what makes the game of life so exciting.
