- Kick it! |
In a few hours we'll say goodbye to 2008 and welcome 2009 and everyone all around the globe seems anxious to experience the first moments of 2009 in the best possible way.
There are those amongst us that have declared their new year's resolutions and others that haven't yet but what strikes me in this moments of joy is that there are some of us who won't have a chance to do so or won't even bother.
As we are all going to pay our respects to 2008 and celebrate the birth of the new year there are people getting bombed, people who are starving and people who have absolutely no clue on how they are going to survive one more year.
My hopes are high for 2009... My hopes are sky-high but hopes are just that: "the general feeling that some desire will be fulfilled". They are just a feeling. Hoping without working towards what you aim for never got anyone where they needed to be.
2009 smells of change: Change in politics, change in economics, change even in the way we change things and our world desperately needs to change but not (once again) for the worst but for the better.
May the new year bring you what 2008 wouldn't. May health, joy and love come to you in a way you never before imagined that could exist and may 2009 be the best year of your life yet.
Happy new year!
