Dear 2025
As we step out of the old and into the new, I’m hoping you’ve prepared yourself
because ready or not, here they come !
the reviews, I mean,
those year end summaries of just how well you’ve performed.
We the people are on the edge of our seats, curious as to what you’ve gifted and what you have confiscated
& yes,
YES,
I know we greeted you with revelry and gleeeeeee way back in those early minutes of January.
We welcomed you with open arms and merriment.
We ! promised ! and were absolutely convinced, YOU would be a great !!
& you were !
In a million, zillion little ways, you soooooo were.
But unfortunately, 2025, a lot of souls on this planet tend to emphasize negative
& what they see is what they’ll get.
That dismal cloud will continue to hunker for those who allow it to stay.
But don’t fret, 2025
& do not listen to the ! ! CANNOT WAIT for you to be over ! ! exclamations.
Nellies enjoy their song
& they will sing it all the time, every time
please, don’t take it personally.
What you and the years before you offer, are lessons.
Easy or hard or wonderful or horrendous, every single everything is a chance to learn, to grow
& how we handle each assignment is completely up to us, not you.
So on behalf of the many, MANY positive thinkers in this great, big, wonderful world,
THANK YOU.
You’ve done your part.
You’ve taught us well
& yay, 2025.
! ! we will ! !
