Recipe for the NEW YEAR

If you want to have a wonderful New Year…

You don’t need to list your good intentions and file them in the drawer.

You don’t need to cry and regret the bad things you did or stupidly believe that by a special decret of hope, things will change from January and there will be justice in humanity, freedom smelling as morning bread, respected rights starting by the right of living!

If you want to have a New Year really new, you, my dear, have to deserve it, you have to make it new. I know it is not easy, but try it and experience with consciousness. It is inside you that the New Year lies and wait to be new forever.

A fantastic NEW YEAR for you!
(Recipe for the New Year, by Carlos Drummond de Andrade, brazilian poet)
