New Year Same Resolution

I’m never the type that jumps on the bandwagon. I try as much as possible to carve a niche for myself, so this new year I opted for no new resolution. Perennial resolutions are for the weaklings. Real men set goals – lofty ones if I may also add. My goals are the same from last year – work hard to free myself of life’s conundrums, continue in my life-long quest for intellectual advancement and lastly but certainly not the least – reconnect with my families and friends. The latter seems to be of most concern to me as I’ve literally ‘lost touch’ with the world. My introverted persona has somewhat isolated me from reality. I’ve lost precious friends, families have relegated me to the leagues of the unknown. This new year, I’m hell bent on changing all that. I got a calling card and called my childhood friends dispersed around the globe. I called my parents and my siblings and I spent quality time on the phone with them. I felt lighter, happier and very fulfilled. I’m definitely going to continue on that good note.

2006 was definitely a landmark year for me. I accomplished so much and I’m very grateful to God for his eternal mercies. 2006 saw me raking in tens of thousands of frequent flier air miles, ’06 made me realize my potentials in all areas of my life. I grew emotionally, financially and intellectually. In 2006, I lost my precious grandmother but found solace in immortality of the saints. I expanded my horizons in ’06, I found new music genre, read books that aren’t only IT inclined and I became an ardent blogger. I hope I continue on the same path this new year.
