2007... so far

Sighs, it has been a hectic start to the year, and thus I am unable to post as much as I intend to. What has gone on within the last 2 weeks of my life?

Well there was orientation (which was a blast) and then it was back to school where I got reaquainted with my notes and those boring lectures where watching the grass grow seem to be a better prospect. Anyhow, the homework has been piling, the teachers have been yelling and I am getting the shelling. It is very plain to see that I need someone here with me, but my hopes are just as realizable as the lecturer in math shutting the hell up.

'amoursansretour'.... or something like that

Resolutions?

Well, it is the year 2007 and I guess the new year is suppose to usher in a whole new set of wishes and goals that I want to achieve in the year ahead. It is at this time when ppl start blogging their goals and aims, but this blog is different. My resolution for 2007 is to have no resolutions at all. The reason? Life is simply too short.

What do I mean by that, it is a known fact that resolutions are hardly ever achieved and life is too short to be chasing after goals. Dont get me wrong, to have a plan in life is important, but out time here is too short to be chasing after things and never having a minute to look back and appreciate the things that we had done and the problems that we have conquered. It has been a bad habit of ours to never see what we have done and only focus on the things undone.

Life is too short even if we live till 100, we only have 35,600 days to live. That is not alot of time, considering that we would sleep for a quarter of that time. You see, life is too short to always be chasing fantastical ideas with out having to halt for a moment to appreciate what is done. 2007 should be the year where we look back and take things easy. Let 2007 be the year where we live day by day apprecitaing what life has to offer. Let 2007 be the year of appreciation and not chasing and joining the rat race. Even if you do win the rat race, it only makes you the biggest rat.

Mantra for 2007:
Trust, rest and appreciate.
