Another Year

Another year older today.

Another year to learn and grow.
To absorb as much knowledge as possible. To always be a sponge.
Another year to fill pages of journals exploring thoughts, travels, musings, and life.
To never grow weary of doing what I love but to keep practicing.
Another year to grow closer to those people who are so dear to me.
To cherish all the time spent with them.
Another year to travel.
To take off to new places and old places.
Another year to try new things.
Sometimes it is good to switch it up.
Another year to read lots and lots of books.
That might make me even more bookish.
Another year to take on new challenges.
It is good to stretch myself.
Another year to gain wisdom.
To learn through experiences.
Another year to appreciate all the little things.
There is so much to appreciate every single day.
Another year to do good in all the ways that I can.
Most importantly, to thank God everyday for everyday. Each one is a gift.

No good work is done anywhere without aid from the Father of Lights.
- C.S. Lewis
