As another year passes, everyone is reminiscent of times gone by, of the regrets they have, the people they've met, and of the memories that have made these 12 short months. So, like many others, there shall be much sentimentality entwined in this post.
My year, on the whole, has been really quite great. Of course it's had its downsides- but I'm very, very lucky to have shared it with such amazing people. And I think that's what is really important; it's not particularly what you're doing, but who you're sharing those memories with.
I'm lucky to have shared moments with old friends, who have always been there, who I hope will always be there. Even as we go our separate ways, I couldn't ever forget you guys.
I've also been lucky to meet new people, who have entered my life in the weirdest of ways, and who may not stay in my life, but have meant something to me nonetheless.
You see, I think every person you meet has something to show you about yourself, these may be but fleeting encounters - months, weeks, days- or even just hours, but I do think there's something to be learnt. Talking with people can help you understand who you are as a person, they can highlight flaws, encourage your talents and ultimately show you the people who you really should cherish. Because not everyone will be nice, but that's the point.
So, be merry, be adventurous, love freely, encourage happiness. All that kind of stuff.
And I hope you have a very, very "Happy New Year".
