2007 has come and gone.
A year of self discovery and finding the hidden meanings of life.
It has to be one of the most significant life changing years I've had.
Life's dramas, self doubt, triumph over hardships,
I realise we never stop learning and indeed become wiser as we grow - whether we made silly mistakes, repent or repeat them all over again.
Making mistakes is a double-edged sword.
You learn, but it stings you at the same time. Nevertheless, I sit here telling myself to stop tending to the wounds.
In the fraction in a second of a time, perhaps, I'll be able to feel like I've lived long enough to have a flashback of how I've lived.
I try to remind myself that I shouldn't make a fuss about the little things,
about how we shouldn't distort straight forward facts,
and how sometimes the heart is right when our mind deceives us.
I'm still in this bubble of mine where everything is uncertain and my goal is a blur.
The past year has brought me closer, but not close enough. At least 2007 made it feel significantly more than usual.
I thank those that have been there for me, when I was complicating, unreasonable or plain stupid.
I thank you for putting up with me.
And I thank the world for giving me a reason to laugh at myself, giving me crap and making life a whole lot more "interesting" to be able to type this long-winded post.
Welcome 2008.
I hope this would be better than the last.
