Last night, I was watching a new year's eve countdown celebration concert on TV that was held in Taiwan. When asked about their new year wishes, everyone said that they hope 2009 will be a good year, since 2008 had been a sad one. So, I asked Desmond, what makes these people think things will change and become totally different once the last second of 2008 passes?
Sad news continues to flood the news today. For example, a major fire at a nightclub in Bangkok killed and injured 200+ people. Will 2009 actually be a better year?
However, that does not mean we are doomed. It good to be hopeful and it's only when there is hope that things will improve. Of course, we can't just be hopeful. We need to take action as well. Therefore, the most important new year resolution I have is to put my thoughts and wishes into actions (I'm referring to only the good thoughts of course). Procrastination has cost me too much time and I can't afford to lose anymore precious time (e.g. I've been meaning to learn web design maybe more than half a year ago and the furthest I've gotten to is
So what are the New Year Wishes?
- I wish for my little adorable daughter to continue to be healthy, grow well, talk to me soon, be a really smart girl and look more like a girl (last time we went to Plaza Singapura, the whole world mistook her for a boy. Kids in the lift commented that HE is so cute).
- I wish my marriage will continue to be a happy one and Desmond will find a career suitable for him.
- I wish I'll build my career this year.
How about you? What are your New Year resolution and wishes?
