Happy New Year 2008


A brand new year, does it mean we will have a brand new beginning?

Somebody might think it is, but I am doubtful about it. Time, a mystical substance in this universe, flashes through our lives without our control, sometime even without our knowing. New year, simply means the earth has finally finish its one course around the sun, but time still remains as it is, keep on going…

Time can’t be reset, time can’t bend. 31st of December and 1st of January is separated by 24 hours, just like any other days, but people always think that a new year is a new beginning. Yes, it is a new beginning for the calendar hanging on the wall, but for our lives, it already began long long time ago.

Life is destined or modifiable, is a good question for all of us while celebrating new year. If you believe in destiny, new year will tell you that your time is approaching. But if you think life is in our hand, I guess new year doesn’t make any difference for you.

Another question, if you were given a chance to sit on a time machine, sending you back to the past to undo some of your mistakes, which mistake you want to erase? Hmph… wow, I have a long list of errors that I wish they never happen to me. But after watching the movie ’13 going on 30’, I got an answer. The answer should be: nothing. Because of mistakes, we are who we are now. Mistakes make us grow and learn, mistakes make us stronger and wiser, mistakes guide and lead us in the future.

So what do you think of 2007? What are you hoping for 2008? As usual, wishing you all HAPPY NEW YEAR 2008!
