Salam Namaste 2007!

Enjoying the welcome of the new year with Eid mubarak is not something you experience quite often. The transition of 2006 to 2007 happens overnight, but what really makes the year memorable takes 365 days and a few hours here and there... 2006 had a lot in store for us(the world), most of them are not nice things ranging from poverty,wars,deaths,natural disasters, political disasters etc..... Some of you(the readers) might have experienced some of the above or experienced some of the better things(not mentioned above). Hopefully none of you experienced the above.

It always feels better to talk about it, share it, blog about it, be anonymous(who cares)...just get it off your chest...


2007


Hoping for the best to come for this year. Celebrations galore, had a small barbeque at home and then headed to "The Curve", was the nearest place where they would have the countdown and fireworks. It was great to see so many people in good spirit, waiting for the clock to strike 12. Arriving at just 11:45pm, we had enough time to get to the centre of all the crowd.

I guess my watch might have been a few minutes slow, as the fireworks shot into the sky like there was some spaceship fight in space from "Star Wars", it was a magnificent sight, full of "oooh's" and "aaah's". It all lasted for 10 mintues or so in the meantime me and my bro got some cans of those foam and spray and lets just say we let "hell loose" on anyone and everyone.

Eternal paradise can range from a glass of "Ais Limau" to sipping on coconut juice on the beach on some exotic island. If you think of it, its all in your head, enjoy the small things in life because they are worth it....

Wishing you all the best for the new year -


Happy New Year and Eid Mubarak
