It's forty five minutes left in this year. Enough time to peek one final time over my shoulder to see the year before it gets relegated to another chapter in history.
Last year at around the same time I guess I was cooking for a couple of friends.
A year passed, one that had been in many ways, the toughest year for me. Dealing with loss, accepting it for what it was while fighting to remember the good. It's a damn hard thing to do most of the times, and it complicates life.
But I learnt A lot about people . And I'm glad lived through 2009. I won't go so far as to think 2010 is going be better but I do hope I learn a lot more.
As I start hearing the first of the party screams and the sky lights up with crackers, we go into the new year I wonder as I have always....
What really is the point of life? We celebrate so much with people. I'm sure next year at this time we would have lost atleast someone whom we've partied with today. Someone with whom we're so close to today at next years party we'll have only bitterness to rememer them.
Well, 2009 has made me a beliver in this quote
"sometimes, the best way to reduce your pain caused by the thorns in the walk of life is by removing another persons thorns"
My goodbyes to 2009 and a fresh eye to 2010. Yes I shall end 2009 in the best way possible. Slipping into the arms of sleep. And get up eay tomorrow.
Good night and my thanks to all the wonderful people who've tolerated my presence in their lives, while simulataeously giving me a comforting hand when I needed to feel human touch.
