another year comes to a close. another year older. i've been thinking about how short life is lately.
and i've been thinking about forgiveness.

it seems somehow natural to put things behind you on this night, to move on. it's easy to say, harder to do. so much baggage is accumulated. too many memories, too many episodes.

is forgiveness the hardest part of life?

i hope in 2007 we can learn to forgive. i hope i can. i hope some people can finally let me go, you know who you are. i hope a few can forgive me for things i've done, and for things they think i've done. i hope i can move on in life. i hope i can forgive my outstanding accounts.

i have been incredibly blessed. i have 3 amazing kids. a great wife, fantastic extended family. i have some friends i love with passion. i have mates i can tell anything to. i am lucky. i have a job. actually 4 of them now but 2 actually give me money. i have a warm home and great parents. i am luckier than i deserve.

welcome to 2007. there are a few bridges to build, a few to mend, and a few to burn. that is my prayer for this year. i hope this year i will also come to peace with my station in life, and boldly dream again for the future. i am glad i have a future.

i forgive you.
please forgive me.
