&lt;p>Out of habit, we make big plans for life.&lt;br>
New year, new rules, new me.&lt;/p>
&lt;p>Out of habit, we read, discuss, advise others—&lt;br>
And still feel uneasy when we sit alone.&lt;/p>
&lt;p>We will fight hard for marks, job, money, respect,&lt;br>
For family name, for &amp;ldquo;what people will say.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br>
But the same small fight with ourselves—&lt;br>
Leave cigarette, wake early, speak less in anger—&lt;br>
We lose again and again.&lt;br>
Then we say: &lt;em>Maybe I am just weak. Maybe this is my fate.&lt;/em>&lt;/p></description></item></channel></rss>
