A Very blessed year to all of you reading this post ! 2010 came with a mix bag of fortunate and very unfortunate events like salt and pepper but finally we can put all that behind us and move forward.
To all those of you, feeling low right now, please remember, it could be worse. Please try to see where you are fortunate in so many other ways and dont despair your situation. There is so much more we should be thankful about. Good health would have to be right there on top of that list ! Loneliness is a dread but atleast being alive and in good health is better than being with selfish and calculating companions. Please friends, Keep the faith.
Well for me the last couple of weeks were total relaxation.
A couple a good news :
- I won the basic grey blog candy. Which was a first for me ! If you havent won anything yet or if you have won too, you know exactly how excieting it is winning something. Especially something you really like. It may be sometime before which I receive my prize though.
- I am cleared of my tumor which I was on treatment for over the last 6 months for. That is really “GREAT” news and a relief !!!
For the last decade we have spend every New Year eve in our home country but really felt so alienated and dependant on others becoz we really were there in our own country only as ‘visitors’ ! And finally this winter we are here and we spend the new years eve watching the fireworks at the super phenomenal Burj Khalifa ! It was just great ! Dubai was chilled cold last night. And just having the freedom to travel anywhere at any hour here, is so so great. We really are fortunate to be living in such a country without fear of carrying our national documents, or fear of being stolen, fear of not carrying enough eatables coz nearly all the petrol pumps have a fantastic grocer with is 24 hours. Counting small pleasures.
Here are just a couple of pictures of the celebration last night :
