2008 just passed by and I had to do my analysis and retrospect..Overall it was a year of goodness. Goodness does not technically mean that everything that happened or did not happen gave me happiness but at the end it was all good. At the end of the day this year was 'the year of right' for me. I was able to judge, see, understand everything just the way they are. To me this was the biggest achievement of my life. All these years if I have struggled with anything is 'Unwarranted Expectations'. Leading to uncalled brainless uncanny foolish emotions. But this year it was different. And am very happy and peaceful.
I met lot of new people. None of them failed my expectations. I gained new friends. I had no trouble in identifying or disconnecting from "Friendly Bogart's" either :). I got re-connected to a friend I value the most, my pride and I love them the most. I am very fortunate to have such people in my life. If their is absolute love then I must say this is what it is. God bless them and me for letting us have each other in our lives. OSO, 'Happys Endings' was true. All that ends well is what really matters and god have saved me from not transforming into an 'Emotional Junk Yard' :). Every thing around me lead me to the other and am happy, 'Happy Singh'.
2009, is going to be year of struggle. It has already started with a bend in the road to graduation. I have absolutely no idea how this year is going to go, all I know is I have to keep myself in focus, finish the Phd and get a job. I just hope and pray that I do not run out of gasoline, hope and faith for this last leg of the flight to freedom.
Thanks to all the souls who keep praying for me and have lead me where I am. Hopefully they continue praying as I climb the last summit of 'Jills Mountain' :)

:) So similar..
For me the year 2008 was very similar!
And guess what... 2009 is going to be very similar too !
On my part I strived towards looking at the positive things in life.. and also towards having to select from only two possibilities -either something is good .. or something is great.. And tried to remove the bad word from my vocabulary .. Succeeded to some extent.. but ya .. after some time the "Not so good" and the "Not so great" kept creeping in .. well i guess a part of the parcel of life.. One just needs to keep moving on with optimism and hope.
All the best to finish that PhD soon and getting a good job ! :)
sameeeeee pinch :)
all the best with your MS too,
and even though the "NOT SO GREAT" kept creeping in we succeeded in fighting :) cheer's to that.. and cheer's to gains from last year :)
take care
love tanu
