Happy New Year!
I ponder, why do we actually need a new year? Regardless we are referring to the Masihi or Hijri calendar.
I guess people need that, how should I describe it, a starting-end point? A period of time? A fresh start?
And why do we need to have a resolution, every year? Most of us abandon their resolution by the 7th January anyway.
That's where HOPE comes in the sentence. People who have resolution, HOPE that something will turn out good, HOPE that things will be better, HOPE to be the best.
By having a resolution, we have an aim, a goal (gold?).
Anyway, that was just a random thought.
Done this Facebook year review and scanning through pictures that they randomly picked for me. I realized I did had a wonderful 2014. Lots of things happened in a year, that I've lost my time orientation.
I diagnosed myself of having a minor amnesia. This is a healthy sign because I tend to forget that the scar was a painful scratch and I became oblivious to the agonizing ache.
Why bother about the past, when future is as exciting for a bird to take its first flight. Why fret about the things you lack, when you are drowned in the blessing of our Creator. There is always something to be thankful of.
By the end of 2014, the East Coast was slap by unstoppable rain. Puddles became enraged and intensify their depth. Damp melancholy prevails. Also, a dear friend's father was about to have a CABG (Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting) and having to see her eyes are all wet while she thought of a father who was never ill.
I do somehow feel relieved having this all write down. The moment when all your neurons start sending it's neurotransmitter towards each other, as saying hello to an old friend whom they miss.
This is all acute inflammation.
A body response to harmful stimuli,
short duration
and ends with healing.
