Today has actually hit me and reminded me that within 2 or 3 days a NEW YEAR is among us.
I actually had no idea that it was here so quick and subtle, which never crossed my mind or maybe I just did not think about it at all. But, it has come around much faster than usual as this year seems to have flown by somehow, could be due to the many changes such as starting University and much more drunken night than the previous year. However, there is something special about this year that I have not experienced from other years and this is simply; Independence. This has come about after I started University and at first, it was weird but after you live with it, it actually was not too bad...So now I can live with it as I have grown to like it.
Anyhow, since there are a matter of days before the New Year will come about, I will take this time to reflect back on the year of 2009....
Things Changed, Choices have been made, Moments in our lives lived to be remember for eternity, Letting new people into your live making a difference and accepting the path you have chose.
I believe that many people would find it difficult to choose the right path for themselves, when life goes off course and in desperate measure you must choose your direction. This can be difficult as you may fight to believe that the path you are taking is the right one for you, However there are those who beg to differ. Will 'Those' people respect your choice and will you be honoured for your choice? Every morning we wake up to make a choice, but that choice is yours.
"Life is the sum of all your choices" - Albert Camus
In this case I have no regret in the choices and decisons I have made to make my year of 2009 the way it is.
Life is easy when you have Friends and Family to get you by, they are the simple thing in life that we already have and are, what truly matters. They give you courage, give you strength. They make you laugh and make you realise what life is truly about.
2009 has blessed me with true friends; They will be hanging around my life for a while other drift away. But you would feel the ones who would hang around for a longer time then others, even if they live far away and have limited contact. Fate works in many ways.
I have my academic achievements along the side also, they may not be Oxbridge standard but I know that they are enough, and I know myself that I have tried my very best as they got me into University. The University West Of England - I am in my first year and I will be staying for another 3 years for sure.
My family - A place where I can relax and Chill. A Family is where we always live our lives, we were born into one and we will die from one. It is a place where we will always be, be with them in person or in spirit, but they are always around.
I am very thankful for what I have and I will not ask for more as whatever comes will come........
As quoted by Oprah Winfrey - "Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough"
Since starting University in September 2009, It has made me realise how many different characters of people there are, some you may have seen as ordinary and those with you belive to be abnormal. But everyone have their own individual differences which makes them stand out of the crowd. Some you think you will never get along with and in later times you may become good friends.
Maybe if everyone forget about the past, live the present and not look into the future, people can get along much more? Guess I can not ask for too much.
This is all I have to say from now.
I do look forward to what 2010 will bring and hope that it will be a good and successful year.
I will be bringin a few of my New Year's resolution from the previous year to 2010 AND I will make sure they are accomplished.
