New Beginnings

As the New Year has begun, there are a lot of resolutions to undertake and abundant things to do. It is important for us to make this year the best chapter in the book of our life.
One can paint a scenery on the canvas , write poems on a notepaper , sing to the beats of a favorite band’s number , dance gracefully , walk under the glittering sunlight , watch the sunset , converse with people about their experiences , travel to different places , etc . Many a times, we forget myriad options that surround us. Why don’t we try to engage in the above mentioned activities? Wouldn’t we feel happy to immerse in these things that would spur our imagination and make us a better individual? Above all, we must ensure that we use our time judiciously and fulfill new dreams and obligations. The previous year was filled with sadness and a chasm of darkness but the New Year has a lot of things to offer. We should focus on bettering and perfecting ourselves, planning a set of goals and striving with determination to come out with flying colors. Being a human being, we feel heartbroken and lovelorn after a man or a woman betrays but we must not let pain engulf us. Is this not the time to forgive and forget? Are we still going to feel shattered like before? We ought to rise above all afflictions that come our way. In order to break monotony, one should experiment new things. Gone are the days when you would sit idly at the chair and stare endlessly. It is time for us to plunge into action and win the rat race of endless ambitions. If we were stubborn before now we have to be understanding. If we were as lazy as a sloth earlier now it’s high time that we work hard in every aspect of life. A lot of youngsters fall into a pit of depression due to many reason but don’t you think that life is more than just being sad and solemn? In case we did not achieve success in the bygone years, now it is an apt moment to strain every nerve to reach the zenith of victory. Since we faced incidents that shocked us to utmost we should not give up. Someone rightly said, “Try and try until you succeed “. Just as a baby bird tries hard to fly likewise, we have to try. There is no harm in trying for it leads to enquiry and enquiry leads to invention. With a cheerful smile on our faces and a big heart of hope, one should bid a goodbye to the last year. We never know what is there in store for us tomorrow but this doesn’t mean that we fear and crumble like a powder. The new year will enlighten, soothe, strengthen and sharpen us. We are involuntary driven by our subconscious to worry about the coming day. Worrying harms our mind and makes us stagnant like a tower at a street. Adding to this, we must feel lively, chirpy and excited about new beginnings, new journey and new destinations. The environment is to be filled with positivism and optimism.

Let us relish in the realm of joy and do things that makes us happy. The famous line goes, “What you think, you become. “Everyone of us should be in a happy mood and rejoice like there’s no infinity. By the grace of God, we have been saved. Are you ready to make this new year worthwhile and look ahead at new beginnings?
