In Retrospect

Aptly named, I feel that this year is worth a mention… 2010.

This was the year I had most lemons my way, periods of almost breaking down..sigh… but am grateful for the people who stood by me. They did not look away at the sting of lemon peels but stuck by me to make the lemonade we now share. I am forever in your debt.

This year taught me how to persevere. I am glad I am surrounded by good-hearted people, that in the time where most choose to delve in gall and bile, we put our heads together tongue in cheek and blindly forged ahead. With the surety of a bat in a cave, no walls have been hit as yet. You taught me the strength of unity of purpose.

This year also gave me a dose of betrayal. Its funny how the people you trust whole-heartedly can turn into strangers, like having someone else’s dream. It still bugs me that it had to happen, lost some really good people before they are even dead. May you live in peace!

This year brought me friends for keeps. People who put up with my bad side and reveled in my good side and took me for me. It isn’t easy, I would know. Hope you will all be around next year, because we run it! This year brought along love, not to me alone but those around me. I give credit to those who undertook masonry for our sakes, we are all happy now because you cared enough.

Life is like an eel, hold it wrong and long and you lose it. Opinions are not facts, take them in or let them go…life is too short to pause and rewind. For now, i can only wait with bated breath for next year.
