New Year’s Resurrection

Farewell 2011... It’s so ironic if you’re going to look back how time flies so fast during this year but quite a lot of good and bad memories along the way. One of the best way to welcome 2012 is to assess ourselves on what are the things we have achieved, the ones we would want to continue to do on the next year and the things we want to burry along with 2011. And it’s high time for us to have a conclusion which a lot of people are fond of doing but not everyone can achieve... making a list of new year’s resolution.

These resolutions are the ones we have come up with based on the not so good things that we’ve done or experienced during the previous year. It may also be something that you would want for a change. And by change, it’s really not necessary if it’s for your own improvement. Sometimes, the reason why you want this change is to just eliminate the boringness that’s lurking in our lives... something new. But whatever your resolution may be, let’s always be responsible for all the risk that we would take along the process.

Not all New Year’s Resolution should always be something new. As people grew older, a lot of things were being absorbed and embodied by oneself. These are the subconcious things or traits that we are getting but we rarely noticed. The only way we will discover this is when we meet an old friend, or a relative whom we haven’t seen for quite a while who will tell us how we used to be back then.  Once these box of our old qualities were re-opened, that’s the time that we will realize and compare how we are now and before. Questions like “Am I better now that I know and I’ve been though a lot or back when I was  naive?” or “Was I really like that back then?”... etc... These are the thoughts that we shouldn’t get confuse and rather take it as an additional option or an add on to our resolutions.

Sometimes, re-rooting ourselves on this good old traits are the best resolution that we will have as it will be easier for us to do it since we were once like what we’re aiming to achieve. And I call it new year’s resurrection, as we’ll try to revive or bring back what we once have within us. Once we’re tired to find answers... always go back from the start. Happy 2012!
