its that time

Its that time of the year again, where people look back and think on what has been done to look forward to what will be done. Most people count their losses not seeing the gains they have made, mostly becuase they either didnt, or lost it in the shadows of sorrowful events. And truth is a few things that went wrong for them somewhat - either genuinely or not - overshadows the joys.

But as for me, I had a blast. This Christmas - and sorry I didnt wish you a Merry one - was great. I had so much fun. It was ecstatic. To think I spent some time wishing I had gone to Nigeria, since thats where all the fun is but once it jumped off, ob boy was it a ride. Not that I did anything I wouldnt normally do, actually I went skiing. It was a party after the other with well meaning friends, great conversation and sumptous food. It was like been with my family only these ones belonged to another. True feelings came out, i got to know my faults who doesnt have one. But all in all it was great. I think I should now be called the enforcer - I was made a judge in a game of taboo. They needed someone to keep an eye on the score, and you know how we like to cheat. It was great.

So on the cusp of a New Year. In 5 hours Nigeria would have crossed over, China already did as did India. We on the East coast will get there before the West coast (in the US that is) Britain will be about an hour before Nigeria, as will Ghana I think. Funny though, if you look at it somewhat we all did enter it at the same time. We are all on the same planet arent we, but the spinning does add a spin. If you have been reading the news, you will find that the Earth is spinning a little slower than it should and the whole Earth will be a few seconds behind the New Year. Scientifically proven. Word.

As tis New Year comes, you will be making resolutions and promises. Don't. If you have to wait till a New Year to make a resolution do you really need it. Make specific goals, set dates and go for it. You will see.

Well I have no wonderful insights for you. I will be at church tonight, praying for my future. Will spend time thinking about my life. As you should do yours.

Wishing you a Happy fruitful and prosperous New Year. God speed ahead.
