A good harvest

Interestingly, I thought this year started off really well. I remember work, health and social life as being rosy and dandy. Maybe the middle of the year wasn't so memorable but it sure seems like it's ending off on a high note.

It has been such an intense year, attracting all kinds of excitement to the doorstep.

Some sweet energy is keeping me happily engaged in the remainder of 2009.

In general, relationships with people was brewed at an intimate degree. I definitely saw myself opening up to people on a different level. Either I have evolved or the people I kept myself surrounded with have paced themselves on the same footing as me. Works great both ways! :)

I may have lost touch with my inner self in some ways. Especially in the happiness department. What makes me tick? I found it tough to answer the question I posted. When things used to be much simpler, was I happier? Maybe. Over thinking things is just part of maturing. Whoever said that the mind is set for greater things is darn right. There is some truth to associating emotions with age - as you mature, you manage your emotions better. I call it experience.

Then there's that subtle but distinguish transition in appearance which I can't deny, makes me feel feminine and demure. The curls, the makeup, the clothes, and the grooming are part of the package. The talk about reliving the pixie crop was shelved momentarily. Just today, I did a casual bun of the hair and gosh I must confess I thought it looked so good I wouldn't want to snip it away.

This was an obliging year as opposed to a me-year, where internal and external changes were initiated and therefore resulted from people's expectations and demands. Did I live up to it? I think I did my best. A very productive year albeit laid-back and less zingy than anticipated.

Big changes coming up. By big, I mean life altering. I have a lot of thanks to give and I know I won't be able to finish doling out this year. The good news is, I'm definitely trading up. I did say happiness is a matter of choice, didn't I.

With that, well I just have to chase it back again. There are much more to achieve for twenty ten, that's for sure.

Just because nothing beats a failure but a try.
