And another year ends…

The statement ‘year end’ is so final and then again when you put it in perspective it’s just a day on a calendar and then a new day dawns and we start the countdown all over again.

This year has been long. Every day has been measured, time has often stood still even though I yearned for it to move on. It has been filled with trials and learnings and pain and worry. It has however also been filled with love and joy, support and kindness, dreams and fulfillments. That’s the thing that a karmic year teaches you- after every darkness there will be light and facing your demons head on is the only way to make them disappear.

And suddenly it’s the new year and you start the year all over again – re-energised, excited and with hope and then January with unforgiving weather starts to weather and tame all the new enthusiasm once again…

But why look at it like that?

This year for me the 31st will just be a day where I will give thanks- for all the learning, the blessings , the raps on my wrist and the accolades. And with puppies in arms , I will start the year with a prayer to be kind(er) (if possible), to allow me to be generous and give me the strength to love and be loved even with all the imperfections I have and am surrounded by!

And then of course I’ll clink my glass and toast the year to come!
