Happy New Year!
Dear Readers,
Transitioning from 2021 to 2022 may have been a lot more subdued than we’d have liked, with the third wave rearing its head… but over the past couple of years, we have learnt to find and cherish the little joys in little things, and celebrate moments instead of occasions.
Club-parties and events have been either cancelled or scaled down, in keeping with the local restrictions imposed. But if we could ring in 2022 in the presence of the ones we love, we still have lots to be grateful for. Of course, nothing compares to a warm and enthusiastic Happy New Year hug-and-peck at the stroke of twelve, but being able to see and hear your loved ones in real time, surely comes a close second, in these circumstances. Coz the one resounding truth that has stood out through the pandemic, is: ‘Who you’re with will always outdo where you’re at!’
There’s always something magically motivating about new beginnings… A new year, a new day, a new job, a new relationship, a new start… these present us the beautiful and hope-laden promise of second chances and new potential. A new beginning is the best ingredient that delivers delicious success unto our plates, provided we do the cooking to justify its recipe! Even the most well-defined goal calls for your perseverance and action, for you to step out of your comfort zone, and blank out the nay-sayers. Similarly, the dawn of this New year, can, at best, provide the perfect platform for a new beginning and success. Achieving it is entirely up to you!
Here’s wishing you and your loved ones a Happy and Prosperous 2022! May the new orbit fill our hearts and our homes with healing, happiness and smiles!
Have a great weekend! Stay safe!
