2012

As the sound of firecrackers fill my ears, I have a very happy feeling seeping through ever pore of my body. A feeling, that assures me this year is gonna witness realization of dreams while new ones are being spun. A feeling that compels me to eagerly look ahead and live life queen style. A feeling that would reinforce my belief in miracles. A feeling, that can't be given a name, for it could scar its sanctity.

Every new year brings with it a lot of hope. We believe that bygones will be bygones and look forward to a new life which would heal our wounds, bring us relief.The hope that spurs up in my heart, which brings a smile of my face, which gives me the confidence to face the unknown, is the same hope that inspires a writer to write her next novel, an athlete to run a race of his lifetime, an actor to portray life on screen and a painter to capture colors of this universe on a canvas.  Every 1st of Jan marks the commencement of hoards of resolutions, most of which die a silent death in less than a week! But the same people make the same resolutions every year, without giving up!

It's said that what one does on Jan 1st, marks pretty much all he/she would do throughout the year. So, I decided to start my new year with something, that has, in the past few months become an avenue of expressing myself - writing. I won't say it completes me, but without it I surely am incomplete.There a lot of things I would like to do - Explore the world, Work for WWE/ National Geographic, Meet Edge (if I hear any of you laugh, I swear I am gonna have to take you to task!!!) and finally have a nice BIG ring on my finger!!!  But most importantly, I realize what shaping ones character means. So I decided to be the best person I can today, hoping this would rub on for as long as this year would last and a lot more! As for my wishlist, here's hoping I get to check all of them by end of this year!

2011 passed by at a break neck pace. I can't point my finger at one particular thing that made it rocking or boring! The most important lesson learnt has been about people. I had the good fortune of meeting few really genuine beings. Some in office, some outside and some online! A big thanks to all of you for reinforcing my faith in goodness. You guys have been like zephyr. Looking at your loved ones moving away is never easy.  All my friends in different continents, you guys are the most happening thing in my life!  But distance only brings you closer and closer we most definitely are. Then there were relations I almost lost, but were saved in the nick of time. I sincerely apologize for my follies. Can't promise that I won't repeat them, but will cherish you with all my life and not let go ever again. And that is my word. Finally, the ones who are around me, who have always been the closest to my heart, who give meaning to my life, here's praying this is just one of the many many happy new years we celebrate together!

I personally thank the super power for giving me one more Jan 1st to live and cherish with my loved ones. All my problems diminish when I see celebration of life all around me. Here's hoping the celebrations are here to stay! Happy new year to one and all. Make the best of this day, for you are fortunate to have it.
