Change and 2012

2012.

Where did the time go? It seems as if it was only yesterday we were celebrating 2000. And suddenly, 12 years have passed. Time can be sneaky like that.

When we are living at the current moment, we have the tendency to get absorbed into the  revolving doors of one event after another. Small things discreetly creep in and manage to entwine themselves with our ever evolving lives. On the other hand, monumental occasions also permeate our existence, leading to startling discoveries and changes.

Be those shifts are toward the good or the bad, there is the incontrovertible realization that time adheres to its steadfast metamorphosis. And with that transformation, it changes us as well. Instead of being sucked into the vacuum of obstinate transitions, we should take advantage of them. Remaining incompetent against the constant blur of shifts is just  a waste of energy. And considerably, a loss of valuable time.

May 2012 be filled with blessings and the realization of dormant dreams. May this new year entwine itself into our lives bearing more wonderful news and successful endeavors.

Happy 2012.

“We meet today

to thank Thee for the era done,

And Thee for the opening one.”
