Happy New Year!

Many centuries ago the New Year was celebrated on the 1st day of April, back when the calendar was the Julian rather than the current Gregorian. This means that today would be the new year, but now because of a convention our year started on January 1 or February 8 for the Chinese.

This led me to think how the new year can be any day or better, it can be every day. We don't have to wait 366 days to create new goals or to begin to accomplish them. Any day can be the day to restart, to try to be a better person, to change habits or to go to the gym. People seem to forget that we only have one life and we don't need to accept our unhappiness.

If 2016 is not being a good year for you, start all over again.

And that's why today is New Year to me. Happy New Year.

And this isn't a lie.
