A New year is always another chance for us to grow as a better person. Everybody has their own New Year's Resolutions. People are so excited about everything. But before I welcome the new year let me looked back at my life in 2007, it was a tough year for me, got a new job, new environment, new friends, been inlove, got hurt, been sick got recovered, I definitely learned a lot. I dont have any regrets for the past year. If given a chance to go back to the previous year and asked me if I'll take all the choices I had I will say yes because all those experiences makes me who I am right now, a better person and a stronger one. So I'm saying Goodbye to 2007. Now, let me say Hello to 2008. Nobody knows what's life ahead of us for this new year, I guess it's the mystery of life. I'm not sure where I'm heading. I hope I will just live one day at a time, takes everything as a blessing, I will learn and continue to learn how to live life to the fullest. I got priorities my relationship to God, my family, myself, my work, friends and community service. I am very optimistic to accomplish all I want for this year.
What about you? What is your point of view about your life for the previous year and this new year? What is your vision for 2008?

Every year is a new time to start new and fresh, but every DAY is a new time to start new and fresh as well.
I have a friend of mine who is really successful and I asked him how he stays so upbeat and happy (his domain name even has the word HAPPY in it!).
He told me something that made me smile, but also made me reevaluate the way I go about my average day... he told me
"Every day I get up, I get up with a positive thought in my head and every night before I go to bed I go to bed with a positive thought in my head."
Many days there are many many things I have to be thankful for and some days I have to be thankful I am just alive.... 2008 is a new start for all of us and we all want to make the best out of it we can. If we can all think positive thoughts... the person, the people around that person, and the world as a whole would be a better place.

I agree to that, we live hoping that everything will be great and that hope ends when we stop believing just like life ends when we stop dreaming. Happy New Year CatsandDogs! God Bless you and your family.
