Happy 2007

2007 is HERE! Smack in the face! For some reason, this is different than new years earlier. Earlier the crossover used to be blurry. The last year would melt into the new one surreptitiously. At the yearend, I would find myself thinking for a split whether it was the current or the next year. But 2007 seems to be having its own personality, it hid under the covers completely and wham! came out with full force when it did.

2006 for me was a pretty dismal year, every which way you look at it. I havent been living it up. Never been more confused. As much as I try to run away from it, the urge to do something meaningful and impacting tightened its grip further on me like a voodoo spell. Yet I have no clue how to go about doing it. Part of the problem is that there are so many open avenues at this juncture, I have a hard time which one to go down. Yes, I want to go down one of the less traveled ones, but which one dear Frost?

For 2007, the plan, besides visting the dentist, is to narrow down the canvas which hopefully will give a sharper focus. Traditionally my problem with this is that I am somewhat of a happy-go-lucky person. A part of me rebels against attempting to plan out the whole of my life. Or to make a long term goal for which I strive for tirelessly. I would like to take each step in its own stride and then forget about it. I guess I am one of those attention-deficit, life-is-journey-syndrome nincompoops.

The flip side to being a rolling stone is that .. you gather no moss! And sometimes I wonder if I will catch myself thinking of ... ummm ... moss later.
