A New Year brings new beginings, hope, dreams, friends and choices. Let go of the past and embrace the now, leave behind all the negative voices. If you have regrets from your mistakes and feel guilt from the people you have hurt. My advice is to first forgive yourself, cause self- loathing only drags you deeper into the dirt. A new year is actually every single day you wake up to the joy of being alive. Never taking for granted a single minute or breath, till that inevitable day you die. Fill your heart with compassion, love, and humility to see the true beauty life can bring. Excrete from your soul hate, jealousy, and pride, doing so ensures one day you will fly with angel wings.
