Another Day

Just recently, I was introduced to a song called This Is The New Year by Ian Axel (thanks Jen!). I love, love, love this song, because it sums up how I aim to live my life.
After suffering from chronic pain for so many years and finally getting my life on track, I don’t plan on wasting a moment. I am living the heck out of this life, with joy and thanksgiving. And I want you to come along for the ride.  
Do you realize that the promise of a new day is yours? It’s yours for the taking. All you need to do is reach out a grab it! It's not just another day, it's ANOTHER day!!! Brand new, just for you!
Here’s the link to their song on You Tube, if you have time for an upbeat jam session:  The Is The New Year . The song goes a little something like this:
Another year you made a promise, another chance to turn around.
And do not save this for tomorrow, embrace the past and you can live for now.
And I will give the world to you.
Speak louder than the words before you, and give them meaning no-one else has found.
The role we play is so important, we are the voices of the underground.
And I will give the world to you.
Say everything you’ve always wanted, be not afraid of who you really are.
Cause in the end we have each other, and that’s at least one thing worth living for.
A million suns that shine upon me, a million eyes you are the brightest blue.
Let’s tear the walls down that divide us, and build a statue strong enough for two.
I pass…it back…to you…And I…will wait…for you…
Cause I, would give the world…And I, would give the world…And I, would give the world, to you.
This is a new year. The new beginning. You made a promise. You are the brightest. We are the voices.
This is a new year. We are the voices. This is a new year.
I have so much more to say, yet in some ways, the song says it all.
Take risks. Believe in yourself because you are amazing. Love hard. Laugh until your stomach hurts.  Always look for the good in people. Live well. Celebrate every single day. Say I love you often. Take time for you. If there’s something you’ve been meaning to say, say it. You are stronger than you think. Live a regret-free life. Stay positive. Remember that pain often brings growth.  If there’s something you’ve been meaning to do, do it. Say thank you often. Welcome change. Never give up. Remember that you are worth it. Dream big.  
Make the choice. Commit to the choice. Ask for help. Continue with courage.
Hugs and friendship,
Tara
