Changes For The New Year
Thank you all for the support all through the past year, a lot of things has gone down. Now we look forward and ahead, here we are in the year 2022, a year filled with Gods grace and favour. A whole lot of crazy events occurred in the past year 2022, and we can't help but still deal with it even as we ascend into the new year. Hopefully the change starts up from our mindset. There's really no ending when we set our mind to it, we sure can turn things to turn out better, many whenever the past is remember its hurtful and not so pleasant but we can make amends or see that we effect that dream change.
Have you ever lost in a competition, a battle, a faceoff, and everyone seems to think you're the lesser opponent, for examples the football match, two opponents play to win, but only one can emerge victorious, so what happens to the loser, he has to face the shame of defeat, whenever he remembers, there's a sharp pin of regret, follow with a flashback of how it all went down, what he or she could have done differently to bring out a different result, however history has taken note already that such an event had occurred depicting the defeat incurred, this is bad enough to be remembered. Well we move.
Of course the past deeds has been done already, however we can make a new history, a new event that would form a new history we want, the previous happenings may not be favourable, it might be so sad or embarrassing that you hate to remember but notwithstanding we can use what we have to create a new life, a new history we would love to remember. Now what do we have? The present, the present is ours to use, the future we can plan for but then only the present is totally submissive to us.
The past is gone and gone already, still don't know if there's any time machine existent like the movies portray so we can go back in time to correct our wrongs, however we have the NOW in our jurisdiction, we can work with the present, previous deeds that are not pleasant when remembered can't be wiped out from our memory, but then we set a new record that will become the new history, in Fact It would be a fresher history and a better counter to the precious shortcomings.
I have witness great comebacks, a huge turn out of event to favour those who had first been defeated, embarrassed or yet humiliated, situations we know could have caused sleepless nights, chapters they don't want to open, but instead of living with the shame and regret, they got up to make a change, completely amazing everyone, totally unexpected, yet they comeback stronger and better and rewrote a better history for themselves. Showing to the world and those who matters "Hey I'm now a better person, and at that I can do better". In this new year we are all capable of being and doing better.
There was a certain man, John is his name, John was having a drinking disorder, it got so bad that no one felt safe around John whenever he gets intoxicated, but John is a fully grown man and no one could order him to go against his wish, not his lovely wife, not his kid, not his family, no one could stop John. Then on a faithful day, John intoxicated as usual, maybe a stronger drink this time, came home and upon a confrontation from his wife, he beat her up, I guess the term is merciless cause she got hospitalized afterwards. The drinks are cleared off and John is clearly regretting his actions.
Now, how does John make up for that he has done already, his in-laws are looking to press charges, of course he can't win this case, all past records would only show more of his addictions, but he too loves his wife more and his scared to lose her, he has determined to plead and promise to change, but who would believe him, especially knowing how likely it is for him to fallback to drinking.
How do I rewrite this history, he began to think. Well I can't take back the hands of time to undo that which I've done but this I promise, never to drink strong drinks again, he tells his wife and her family, you matter more to me than any drink and so I have refuse to drink again, might not be easy but I'm sure we can pull it off. Well years have pass and such incident has never repeated itself again, yes John limited his intake, he didn't stop it completely though but now on a moderate amount, I guess he puts down the second bottle as he remembers what went down.
History was rewrote in Johns situation, no one sees him as a drunk anymore, in fact he has helped people curtail their addictions too. It's rather possible to change a perspective you're not happy with. It's time we stop looking sad as we remember in memories and rather make a new normal for ourselves, a new event we can love to remember. A new history.
