While I know that WordPress would emblazon the date of this entry very proudly on my page, I just felt like typing it out to get a feel of actually typing it there – a realisation of sorts that I’m sitting on the last day of what has been a terrible year.
2007 has taken me places. I’ve met an incredible range of people from the beautiful, stylish, fabulous and heel-clad women at Gucci’s office to an HIV positive 18 year old. I’ve sun bathed in the islands of Krabi and charged up hills with a rifle in hand and had lovely days sitting alone on benches with a single cupcake watching the world go by.
Blog-wise however, I’ve hopped quite a few platforms morphing my digital identity from mature insight to immaturely sightless; from smart to smutty and I’ve settled on a very public one where the only dirty laundry I air will be my clean pair of sexy CK briefs.
As with every year, I wish everyone around me, a happy one, and yet we all know that to have one that is completely happy would be impossible. Our humans lives are such that while we like to shut our ears to silence the chaos around us, the distinct rumbling drums of drama will always make itself heard.
If I could reduce the last year to one lesson, it would be: to observe.
To observe myself, my environment, my people and to accept it for what it is, live it and own it in a way only I can.
I shan’t ramble any further. In true spirit of celebrations, here’s a happy new year to you, and while it won’t be perfect, the future holds plenty more of exciting lessons we can learn from.
