Happy New Year

Can you believe this?
Today IS the last day of 2008.
If i had to sum up this year in a word, it'll be 'difficult'.
January through to December was just difficult, but i guess, positively difficult.
For if adversity were not for growing/learning/persevering, what would we all be?
More difficult than childbirth - that's how tough it's been.
What a ride.

Every New Year's Eve, instead of having a big bash, i like to quietly contemplate the year.
Better still if you have someone beside you to chat about it, reflect and just chew over things.

Happy New Year!
