//bidding farewell to an eventful year//

2010.
In 2009, I remembered I had happily set great expectations for the new year.
And I vaguely still remembered my resolutions.
So unlike me.

Anyway, 2010 had been really eventful compared to previous years.
And I would always remember the disappointment, the period of darkness.
Not only that, but also, the time when I finally saw the light at the end of the tunnel.
The blessing in disguise.

Even though there are some things we wished wouldn't have happened.
Certain things that left an imprint on one's life. on the lives of many others.
Things we regretted.
Things that no one could have prevented.

Yet, to be able to enter another new year itself, is already a blessing.
Also, to be able to steer away from negative thoughts and stay optimistic is, indeed a sign of maturity.
So, why hold on to the unhappy past?

I will remember year 2010 as an eventful year, yes.
A year of painful lessons.
With a happy ending.
