Adios 2008

My structure runs on time. Dates hold important memories. Recollecting moments that hold significance and their anniversaries comes naturally. Boring like that Dil Chahta Hai guy. But that's me. As most blogs go, this post is a reflection of the theme of the times.

What were italicized and bold this year?

1. It is worthwhile to hit the rock-bottom of the abyss. Soul needs mending. Lessons to be learned. It's for the good.

2. Happiness is a state of mind. Optimism and motivation are inherently linked to it. Staying happy is one's own decision.

3. Love thyself. But equally love those who matter.

4. Be tolerant of everything. No two think similarly.

5. Life need not follow the same old sequential path

6. Goals and dreams drive the pursuit for excellence.

7. Traveling adds meaning to life. Each experience can be exhilarating.

8. War and hate breeds a spiral cacophony of violence. History has never witnessed success for the "eye for an eye" jingoism.

9. Music is a balm.

10. No media is unbiased.

Ending this year on a semi-introspective note here.

Physically, in solitude in the ruins of Hampi.

A wonderful 2009 to you all.
