What Should We Leave Behind as a New Year Begins? | Ring Out, Wild Bells

Happy New Year Everyone!!Before you step into a new year, there’s one question worth sitting with: What needs to be left behind?In this reflective New Year episode, Simerjeet Singh recites “Ring Out, Wild Bells” by Alfred Lord Tennyson — a poem that feels less like poetry and more like a checklist for inner renewal.These verses don’t rush you forward.They ask you to release what weighs you down — old griefs, tired conflicts, empty pride, and the constant noise of the world — and make space for truth, kindness, courage, and peace. This episode is for a quiet moment:– when the celebrations fade– when resolutions feel uncertain– when you’re ready to begin again, honestlyLet this poem accompany you as you cross into a new year — not with pressure, but with clarity.As the year turns, may you ring out what no longer belongs…and ring in a way of living that feels true to you.If this reflection helps you pause, share it with someone who may need that pause too.
