As the tide of 2015 recedes into time’s mist

Along with all its secret pain and victories

Leap into the ocean of 2016,

Embrace every challenge

Enjoy the adventure,

For only in deep water do we find our true self

And meaning to our existence,

This sea is our dreams and as we float through its storms

We cling to the driftwood of hope,

Being carried by the current of truth to our inner being

To connect with our soul,

A place of refuge, safety ,

Eternal love and peace
