Welcome to 2014

So I made it pass the midnight hour in one piece. I welcomed the arrival of the New Year by myself on the couch and then slowly dozed off and awoke to a quiet world.  I guess all the party-goers are still in dreamland.

It has been a while since I blogged anything and I feel a bit at a loss for words even though there is so much I would like to say.

2013 has come and gone and although it was emotionally challenging, I somehow feel a lot stronger than the year before that.  The challenge I now face is letting go and to concentrate on me, because the only person in this point in time who finds me important, is me.  Sure I have friends who are looking out for my well-being but they are not the ones having to walk in my shoes (when they are not broken) everyday.  They have their own lives to live.

Every year we make a list of our new year’s resolutions and every year most of us still repeat the same things we were hoping to change or let go of.  I hope that this year is going to be the year that I get to finish what I have started. I can honestly say that for the past two years I have been able to tick off goals I have set for myself and have accomplished them.  The goals which I have not ticked off as complete have all been given new deadlines.  Whatever looks like it will never be completed, I have discarded.

May this year be a peaceful, fruitful year and whatever challenges we are faced with may we have the strength to cope with it.

We need to keep on looking forward and to remember that our past experiences are the tools we have acquired in order to assist us in our future.
