The Most Optimistic Day?

The first day of the year is, arguably, the most optimistic day of the year.

With determination we, as individuals, decide at this moment of time to affect some positive change into our lives or those of others. As a result of this clean sheet of paper offered to us by the New Year we feel that all the possibilities of the world are in front of us awaiting the reach of our hands. We can write the script. With all of the previous years baggage thrown out on December 31st there is nothing left to weigh us down and prevent us from attaining our objectives and resolutions. It is an optimistic day and we are hopeful that this sense of optimism will last for the remainder of the year's days. A new beginning.

It would seem to me that this would, therefore, also be a day when world leaders might be feeling slightly more optimistic than normally. They may be entering 2011 with some real beliefs that this just might be the year that they can, as individuals, affect positive change.

I would therefore suggest that conferences meant to discuss the most important of issues facing us be scheduled on January 1st. Just maybe the collective optimism of the gathered leaders might lead to something positive happening for a change.

To top it off, if you believe that collective consciousness is real then, just maybe, all the hope that the world's citizens feel on this day might influence those gathered leaders to act positively even if, by chance, they happen to still be in the dumps.


Let me know what you think about what you have just read. Please and thanks!
