8 hours away from a new year, a new beginning.

Was just talking to a close friend about how the year (2008) has been for me and I surprised myself completely when I said " It's been good for me, no complaints!!"

In retrospect, it honestly has been a year full of surprises. So much has changed in me and the people around me, a 360 degree change. Not that I didn't have me "down and out" moments in 2008, but its the outlook and the perspective that has changed.

2008 too bought with it a considerable amount of downers, but for a change the good things are over shadowing the bad ones in my life. Yes I have had my share of Failures and downfalls, relationships gone sour (and how), fights, misunderstandings,,but thankfully all this has changed my perspective towards life in a positive way and I am not looking back at the year with sorrow and all things lost. Instead, Iam look back and see all the good things and the Superb people and memories that form a part of this positive outlook. Every single loss in 2008 made me look at life in a different light.

But my friend pointed out that perhaps 2008 has been one of the worst years for alot of people around me and the world on the whole. Recession, Terror Attacks, Financial slowdown of the world economy et al.

2009 is going to be better for sure, all we need is a fresh start at this point.

8 hours away from the new year I hope that 2009 brings with it alot of good luck and lots of love for all my friends :P

Sadly one thing that has remained constant for all the 31st's of my life is that I am going to be home and bring in the new year with the remote in my hand. Hope at least this changes next year atleast :), but if it doesn't then no complaints.

Wish you all A verY haPPy new Year 2009!!!
