HAPPY 2009!

It's the first day of the year.
I feel no magical changes.
Seems the same as yesterday.
But isn't that
so with every day?

What is it with the number of a year
that makes life different, new?
A turn of a calendar page.
A tick of a clock.
Two hands pointing straight up at twelve
and everyone around the world rejoices!
Why?

I suspect the measurement of time
is but an illusion. Everything that has happened
or is happening or will ever happen is happening
all at once.

I also suspect I need psychological help.
Only a crazy person would think such a thing.

Ahhh but since it is you who are doing the measuring
I will measure with you and mark this moment as
a new day, a new year, a new beginning of all things
and wish us all a saner measuring.

Tick. Tick. Turn turn. Two hands hit twelve.
The calendar page has a new number.
Feel brand new for a day or two, why not?
It's a positive attitude. It will serve you well.
And I will join you in the celebration!

I feel my skin soften, my wrinkles fade.
I am but a babe on a brand new day.
Rejoice!

Let the revelry begin!

hey, honey
don'tcha know
not everyone notices the change of the year
it takes some of us nearly 7 months to feel
2 more and we're reborn
new, old, all the same
go to sleep
wake up
a day like any day
might as well come out to play

Is it over?? Just trying to wake up...

Post by **Doreen Peri** » January 1st, 2009, 1:22 pm

no, it won't be over for another 365 days

Post by **Artguy** » January 1st, 2009, 1:26 pm

I feel like Rip Van Winkle or at least Brian Wilson...wake me up when it's over...

and you would be amazed at how much money you could save if you just put back a dollar a day

Post by **Doreen Peri** » January 1st, 2009, 4:13 pm

I'd be amazed if it was anything other than $365.00.

.....

Thanks for playing everyone! Happy New Year!

Although 8 is a great number for our Studio, 2008 wasn't the greatest year for some .... the world's in a mess .... so here's hoping 2009 will be a much better year for all!

Let's make it so!

......

Jam closed until next time. Peace 'n' love.
