Dear Humans,

New year, new you. If only it were that simple. People can change. And we can all do a little better–keep our desks a little cleaner, turn in our homework a little more often, read more books. But we can’t ever escape that old us. They keep hanging around.

Which is a good thing. Because think of all we’ve gathered throughout our lives–good habits (and bad), good friends (and maybe some enemies), knowledge and experiences and advice. Who’d want to get rid of all of that?

The only way we can ever hope to change ourselves for the better is to tap into all that stuff that old us has gathered in the past. New us can only ever come out of the old us.

Sincerely,

Mr. Curt
