Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right!

A very Happy and blessed New Year 2011 to everyone who has stopped by! I sincerely wish and pray and this New Year gives each you everything that your heart desires. It feels this New Year is going to be extra special. I've a strong hunch. I hope it is special for all of you too.

Very rarely does my New Year start on such a happy and positive note. I am glad it did this year. I hope it is one of the best years of your lives too!

Having a weekend coinciding with the New Year festivities gave it a grand start. 

Was it the general enthusiasm and gaiety in the air that rubbed off, on each of us or was it our altered state of mind which gave us so much happiness. It's difficult to say. Maybe a mix of both. During such big festivals and occasions, everyone is so busy being happy and enjoying themselves to the hilt that it's difficult to be worried and sad. You tend to put away your cares for another day too. I wonder why it isn't the case all year through. 

Being happy is really a choice you make everyday, every moment. Not like I didn't know it before, but contemplation makes the realization even deeper. 

Why resist the flow of the river with all your might and waste your energy thus, when you can flow with it to places you've always wanted to visit. Why stop at the first boulder that came your way, when you can flow around it and be on your way. 

The energy that positive people exude rubs off on everyone around. It is impossible to stay unaffected. One lamp lights another and soon you've a bright and cheerful room. Where there is no place for darkness.

I wish you a relaxed, happy , rejuvenating  and a fresh New year. Full of hopes, aspirations and dreams. With tremendous faith to see each of them materialize.
