January....the first month of the new year.
The month in which many resolutions are begun....and undone.
The month in which those weary from the old year
look optimistically upon to refresh and restore their spirits.
To renew their faith in themselves or their fellow man.
To put down the bottle, to put down the fork, to put off procrastination.
To give of yourself, to give of your time, to give up those unworthy of either.
To visit family, to visit a foreign land, to visit more with God.
To make more money, to make better choices, to make more love...and even more love.
January...a month yet untainted by the year's trials and tribulations.
Brand-spanking new, fresh out of the package.
A month in which the events occuring in your
precious 31 days set the tone for the remaining 334.
The weight of the world is upon your shoulders, dear January.
Year after year.
And you handle it so well, with such grace and poise.
No other month is as able-bodied as you.
So...carry on, sweet January, carry on!
Fulfill our hopes and dreams once more.
