Start anew in the New Year
Whoever said the older you get, the faster time flies sure wasn't lying. Doesn't it seem like we just rang in 2017 an eye blink ago? And yet here we already are -- in 2018. Every new year elicits expectations of starting anew -- new beginnings, new opportunities, new horizons. Rare is the person who views the annual turn of the calendar as just another day. How long those expectations last is a discussion for another day, but most find themselves excited at the onset about another opportunity to start fresh. In actuality, we have an opportunity to start fresh every day; we really do not have to wait until Jan. 1. Nonetheless, something about a new year gets us excited in a way unsurpassed by any other time of year.
