Only These Remain

After a long day of fun, partying, and cheer only these remain: hope, love, and faith. Hope that the new year will be better than the last one (or ten). Love for those we care about. Love for those that will be around when we least expect and those that will be there when we need them the most. Faith that the upcoming year will happen, as it inevitably will, for the best. That this year will make us better. Stronger even. That we have the strength to lift a 2 ton weight off of our shoulders. That we have enough strength to deal with the trials and blessings in our long, but incredibly short, lives. We wish for the best out of life. We wish for hope, love, and faith. Little do we realize that instead of wishing, we must be proactive and make it happen . For we must first have known the power of hope, love, and faith to have it again. For only these remain because we know the power and strength their existence holds.
