Hi guys.
Well, today's officially the last day of the year 2003. It's pretty early here in the continental U$ still, so hopefully for all you guys and gals living in Italy (Fortune and Harry-sama !! ^__^), the UK, Austria, Portugal (Eli?), Australia and other parts of the world,
it still is December 31st. ^__^;
So, then... onto the post:
As another year comes to an end, I'm sure many, like myself, have gone through many different experiences, both good and bad. You may have also met new faces, as well as have bid farewell to some old ones. Every year, no matter how "alike" the others it may seem, brings many new things; some of which are pleasant and some which are not, but in the end, it's the mixture of these different events that shape the memories that we will carry over onto the next year of our lives.
Likewise, some of us look forward to the next new year with a shinning light of hope, while others await it with gruesome dread. And then. . . some claim to think of it as "any other day." Hopefully, everyone here has at least some sort of positive outlook for this upcoming year, and if you don't: Cheer up. Things may have been rough this year, and quite possibly there will be more rough circumstances comming up next year - but you aren't alone, for every single one of us has our fair share, and sometimes more, of bad experiences. However, by having a grim outlook, we are making it even harder for ourselves, so don't be sad.
So, as this year comes to an end, we can now add more memories into our hearts and minds - what things will you remember about this year? Have you made new friends. . . lost old ones?
I bet there are quite a couple of things you wanted to say to a certain someone, be it a friend, a family member or someone dear to you, that you didn't. I know I did: There was one thing I really wanted to tell someone, but never gathered the courage necessary to say it. But that's understandable, I guess, for sometimes the things we want to say most are the ones that are the hardest to say, wouldn't you agree?
So, guys... bid farewell to the year 2003 here! Reflecting back on it, what will you take from it and keep dear in your heart?
May every single one of you have a great day today and a wonderful new year. May you all accomplish all you're set out to, and may you always keep you head up high. Whenever loneliness sets it and you're covered in blue, remember that there's a silly girl on the west coast of the U$ that cosiders you to be her friends.
*huggles everybody*
