I welcome the New Year with joy.

The New Year is a magical time. It is a time for reflection and rebirth. A new year is cause for much joy and celebration!

The fresh start of a new year is an exciting opportunity to improve and become more than I am. It is a chance for reinvention and abundant happiness.

To have great joy, I open my mind and my heart to what the New Year will bring. I avoid fearing the change that the ending of one year offers. I welcome change because it allows for growth. Change keeps things interesting and eventful. I find excitement and joy in every new experience.

The New Year provides me with an opportunity for reflection and growth. Each day provides that, but the changing of a year is more significant. As I reflect on the New Year, I realize all of the joy the past year brought to me. I reflect on the past year's challenges, as well as its moments of great peace and happiness.

It is these moments that I seek to experience again. The coming of a new year provides me with more chances for these peaceful, joyous moments.

Today, I embrace and welcome the joy the New Year will surely bring to me.
