New Year, New Cheer. We’ve been given a fresh start, let’s do what we can to make it the best start.

New Year, New Cheer. There are things that we need to change and we have others to rearrange.

New Year, New Cheer. We say goodbye to yesterday knowing the current day will be a better day.

New Year, New Cheer. No more of last year’s cloudy skies, we kiss it and all its lies goodbye.

New Year, New Cheer. We’ll look at life with a better glance, grateful that we’ve been given a second chance.

New Year, New Cheer. We've approached a new day, walking a new path walking a new way.

New Year, New Cheer. We beat yesterday’s storm and the sun of today is ready to form.

New Year, New Cheer. A new rhyme and a new reason is upon us in this new season.

New Year, New Cheer. Our resolve will be stronger and our beautiful days will be longer.

New Year, New Cheer. This is my love letter to a new chapter that will surely be better.

    While I like line 3 (because I believe in focusing on the NOW, because that's all there really is), this line is my favorite: "New Year, New Cheer. A new rhyme and a new reason is upon us in this new season."
