Better

Written by Jacob Ibrag

‘Things will be better this year.’

Lies you preach and believe while

your comfort zone is never within

breach. Cyclically hoping that

tomorrow will change while you

stay exactly the same. Will you

turn away from denial this year

or will you live in the now while

‘carpe diem’ isn’t dead?
