Reflection Eternal

The more things change the more they stay the same.
See i'm tired of playing this game.
checker like the way we just want to jump over obstacles so we can earn a name in a future that is never promised.
To be crowned or acknowledged as not another piece of the puzzle. King Me!
Or at least let me know this is where I'm suppose to be. I've made it in some capacity
I've made it through another year
I wanna start another year
But why we keep finding ourselves in dismay is cuz we fail to sift through these cliches
Proclamations, professing that everything is going to be ok
It's a new year and a new day
Obama type change, but not the hundred of years to let it materialize
No, its now or never with no in between so i guess the only thing left out is clever.
Meaning the only thing left out is knowledge or at least time to acknowledge
There's no struggle without progress
Life is a process, where bumps and bruises are sustained
And although the fact remains that in most cases time heals everything don't be foolish enough and keep hurting yourself in order to create wounds and scars simply to remind you of pain
Its a new year but its not a new day unless you make it
When opportunity knocks don't just open the door but greet it with a firm hand shake
Becuz tommorow is not today, its like clay, that hand that did the shaking, will change and create what tommorow will be.
Please don't forget that this past year was a gift that you have opened, an whether you like it or not, be thankful, because as you and I both know there are millions out there, who have been stripped of its very fine nature. Realize that the next year that we head so anxiously into is a present. Giftwrapped to us by the powers that be.

its your boy J.E
Happy New Years
