(supposedly this is a new year eve post. last post of 2008!)
Soon it will be 2009, and 2008 will be gone in a matter of seconds. I will usually be rejoicing during this period every year, because it signals a time of renewal when everything begins again. I will always anticipate the coming of a new year as i know i can press the 'refresh' and 'restart' buttons again, and begin a new year full of hopes.
Not this year, though.
To me, 2009 will just be 2008 extending for another 365 days. There are many stuff that will continue into the new year, which i seriously dread. Schoolwork, council and some other important issues at hand. To be exact, 2009 wont begin on a happy note because there are several things dragging my mood down, and it wont be a good opportunity to start everything afresh.
Perhaps, i do worry for 2009. 2008 has been a year of many big (really big) changes, so much so that i wish that everything will remain the same in 2009. I just don't want any more changes in my life because i fear that they may change for the worst. Hope many things remain constant and not become variable.
But then again, change is the only constant in life.
Matthew 6:34 says "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own"
Happy New Year in advance!
