Well, here we goBut not “again”

Nothing ever happens twiceIt’s never “last Thursday”Even if this Thursday feels “just like last Thursday”We never take the same train to workOr eat the same thing, for lunch

Earth, this moving spaceshipis never in the same place twicewe hurtleever forward spinningoutwardlysomewhere over in that directionour very lives great wheels of cheese on rolling metaphorical hillsides (which actually sounds delicious)

Here we go –But not “again”;

The loops we use as metronomesseasons, moons, software updatesare patterns, yesbut non-repeating onesfor Time (dramatic pause)is like Pi. (without the e)(a bold statement which also sounds delicious)

So. Here we go. But not “again”.

It’s said that history repeatsbut it just imitates.We’re never back where we beganor washing the same plates.We’re always in a brand new timeand in a different space.We’re always New.The calendar’s a backbeat,we’re a soloso here we go!but not “again”;

the world is not just maththough day to day to day today seems like a well worn path

let’s celebrate the where we are

exhausted, yet ambitiousand heed the annual countdownyet rememberlife’s delicious.
