It is fresh start. A clean slate. And yet, just changing the year doesn\u2019t really change anything. January 1 invites us to start something new, but January 1 has the same troubles as December 31. My daily routine doesn\u2019t drastically change. My bank account doesn\u2019t magically grow. My kids don\u2019t miraculously become obedient. People don\u2019t suddenly become kind.
