The Letter

Adios Amigos!!!

31st December, last day of the year. Well I have been thinking of conjuring something amazing, something gregarious as this is going to be my last post of 2012. Actually I started writing a blog only recently. I have been maintaining a journal for quite sometime though. So technically the last thing I am putting up this calender year.

Honestly 2012 has been one of its kind. Kept surprising me, kept me guessing for a large part. Each time I thought "well this is enough", came back to bite me. Kept me hanging.

We live in a age of cut throat technology, emails, chats, text messages, mobile phones, smartphones and what not. But we have forgotten the oldest way of communicating- letters. So I write a letter to you 2012, the first one I am writing in many years.


Dear 2012

Thank you, for what you have been, good or bad, however I may put it. I won't be condescending in my judgement today. You gave me my chances, had all possible highs and lows. Your ancestors were maybe not as prolific as you were, or maybe you are one of the superior versions that are on their way.

Yet I would like to leave somethings you brought with you only. I don't think that I should carry them forward. Yes I liked them, but then I don't want to start a new year with stuff that I know won't be present all along.

Nonetheless, I wish all the very best and good for my family and friends. I will always be indebted to them, for I am nothing without their support. And maybe this is why they are called our near and dear ones, they just give up on us, never.

I certainly have some big expectations starting the very first week of 2013. Will it be the year where I finally surpass my own credentials, is a thing that remains to be seen. Only time will tell.

So a final kudos to you Sir. Adios amigo.

P.S. Still one full day to go, fingers crossed.

Bye.
