2024: The Year I Rose Anew

This year, I rise, reborn anew, 

A journey of self that I pursue. 

Through fragments of past, I start to rebuild, 

My heart, my soul, my spirit, fulfilled. 

I face the truths I once denied, 

The emotions buried deep inside. 

No longer hiding, no longer tame, 

I walk in truth, no shame, no blame. 

For every misstep, there’s wisdom to find, 

Every lesson, a thread that rewinds. 

This journey is one for the books, I see, 

A chapter of healing, of setting me free. 

The past brings memories, both bright and dim, 

Some songs of joy, others in a hymn. 

Each step I take, both fall and rise, 

A life of color before my eyes. 

I’ve learned to taste both love and pain, 

To know the sunshine, to face the rain. 

I’ve felt the rush of highs and lows, 

And in them all, my strength still grows. 

From saving a dime to splurging a bit, 

I’ve learned the balance, how life truly fits.

I’ve danced in the light, I’ve lived through the dark, 

Each step leaving behind a glowing spark. 

Blessed beyond measure, in every way, 

Grateful for each dawn, each day. 

To fail and try, to dream and strive, 

This is the year I truly thrive. 

God’s grace has led me through it all, 

A steady hand when shadows call. 

I ask for nothing more, for I’ve seen

the beauty in this life, serene. 

A year like no other, a chapter complete, 

A story of growth, of challenge, and defeat. 

But with each step, I understand more…

I’m building me, like never before. 

 

2024, I mark you with love, 

A year of becoming, with guidance from above. 

A life rich in color, full of surprise, 

A year to remember, with open eyes.


With love and gratitude,
Sheena
