For the New Year – 2009

2009 is here. Time does fly by so very quickly, till I’m starting to believe that someone somewhere is pressing the fast forward button. If you haven’t already noticed, it’s the THIRD of January 2009 now. The first and second day of 2009 felt like two hours, not days.


Anyway, this may sound morbid, but I view a “year” as nothing more than a cycle of time. On one side it does signifies a new beginning, hope, and refreshment. But then again, realities are often the same as the previous year and past baggage is carried forward.


To put thing in simpler words, life goes on and it’s just another day like many others.


Having said that, as I reflect on 2008, I feel contented. It was a year of growth; much were learnt, experienced, felt and done. Nothing extraordinary, but yet paradoxically, it was a year that brought a good deal of fulfillment, realizations and self-discovery.


Looking forward to the challenges of 2009.


Happy new year.


PS:

2008’s prime resolution was to jog at least twice a week, and can safely say that it was 90% achieved.

2009’s resolution – 10 minutes of book reading a day (start after my exams, am freaking stretched now)
