Another year is over. Tonight the media will spend the evening recapping the events of the past year, and people will celebrate in anticipation of what lies ahead. As the prospect of war looms over us, and the country spirals deeper into debt, the new year brings with it many worries; but withing the uncertainty there lies hope. I, for one, look forward to the new year and am hopeful that good things are afoot. For the first time I can remember, I regret the end of the year but embrace it. For me, 2003 is already full of promise and new beginnings. A major career move is underway, a physical move is just around the corner, and after over a year and a half of separation, I will soon finally get to see my special someone. :)
Despite the fact that the world is going to hell in a handbasket, you can always find something to hold on to if you try hard enough. Even in the darkest of times there hope can be found. Make 2003 what you want it to be, and don't let anyone or anything stand in your way. In a world full of uncertainty, all one can do is focus on what they can definitively control--themselves. Happy New Year and may there be enough good in your lives to counter the bad. Catch ya next year...
