Thoughts for The New Year

This year I wondered why it is we celebrate a certain date with such enthusiasm. It leads to bigger questions of time and space and things that are far too big to think about whilst celebrating said date.
When really, why not? Celebrate every date I say!

Some of my favourite thoughts other people have on the subject

"New Year's Day- Now is the accepted time to make your regular annual good resolutions. Next week you can begin paving hell with them as usual"
-Mark Twain

"New Years Eve, where auld acquaintance be forgot, unless, of course, those tests come back positive"
- Jay Leno

“New Year's eve is like every other night; there is no pause in the march of the universe, no breathless moment of silence among created things that the passage of another twelve months may be noted; and yet no man has quite the same thoughts this evening that come with the coming of darkness on other nights”
-Hamilton Wright Mabie
