Goodbye 2006

Another year coming to an end. For me, this means the usual round of introspection - what did I do during the year that was of any value to anyone, did I accomplish any of the goals I'd set for myself, could I have done things in a better way...yeah, the usual.

It wasnt a very good year overall. Major problems healthwise, issues at work, things on the personal front not working out...but I suppose that happens to everyone at some point or other in their lives. There were some happy memories too. Sister's wedding, connecting with long lost friends, a raise....And the good thing is that I'm in the recovery process already. So I know in my heart that things will finally turn out fine. I might not get everything I want - who does anyway - but I'm sure I have good things coming my way in 2007.

So here I am, on the last day of this year, looking forward to the coming year with a heart full of hope. My resolutions for 2007:

* Full recovery from the back problem
* Get my financial affairs in order
* Move out into a place of my own - learn to take care of myself instead of looking to my parents for everything
* Achieve a better work-life balance - No more workaholism, more time for friends and family
* Follow my heart instead of my head. Live life, really live it. Believe in myself a little more, and listen less to people who tell me "It can't be done". Because it can. And I will.

This is where I turn the page. Here's looking forward to a new beginning.

Wishing everyone a happy, healthy, cheerful New Year full of hope and good luck !!!!
