So Looking Back , and who Doesn't ..Just Glad that what could have been Wasn't.
I look back at the year 2009 and am truly ashamed of the way i let my near and dear ones down and more imp let myself down ..I think my mum bought me up to be a stronger person than what i have been displaying these last couple of months .....
So what did i do this past year ?
helped a very sweet person at reception ...something that I had never done and which while at that time brought me a lot of exasperation ,in hindsight I am happy for I am told she remembers me with a great deal of fondness..... Thank u Lancette from the bottom of my heart for teaching me patience and the lesson that I will be in your shoes some day ( ie if I live that long) ...and know that the greatest lessons in life come out of the mouths of babes and old people .
People move cities and countries ,yours truly moves continents.... so packed ,said Goodbyes albeit with a lot of fore brooding and reservations but here I was bag and baggage ready for life in another part of the world.....
Got the Wind taken of my sails ...... some welll and truly hard knocks ...a lot of despair and apathy ......some lessons learnt .....
Landed with a coveted position what some would call a dream job ....with all the bells and whistles .....and learned the wisdom that if you want the title be ready for the muck as well ....the top is not always cushy and being happy with what you do matters ....at the end of the day if you are all dressed and nowhere to go then money is truly not good company it has not been taking to me and nor has it bought me the company of people i want to be with so I stand by my belief that money is still a poor yardstick for measuring people or life ( even though at times it can buy you the kind of misery you enjoy)
still grappling with life in Dar ... amused at times and in despair all within a matter of minutes at time... think I lose the plot and get it back in the nick of time....
I will look back at 2009 as a learning curve .....things are not always what they appear and the only bright thing about the whole year was Manish for still being able to look at the bright side love you for that ,Manu for being there with me each step of the way you rock love you heaps for listening to me even 'when at times I don't make sense to myself ,Merrill for wisdom in spades ,Mum and Dad for letting me run and being there for me each time I hit a roadblock for not smothering me with pity just letting me know that its a bruise and will fade .....What would I do without you allllllllll... You make my life worth Living and I dedicate 2010 to you all. Will do you proud.
Welcome 2010.
