Christmas....

Christmas Eve was an adventure of American Football, running home in the snow, eating too much food, and having a walk through the ice covered city with good friends chatting.

Wow the year has truly come to an end..

When i started this blog it was March 06, and here i sit on the Eve of Christmas in a cold, beautiful Denver.. having experienced so much.. when the curtain comes down on anything in life, it causes you to reflect back and look at your accomplishments, failures, joys, disappointments.. but it also causes you to look ahead at a hopeful start.. newness and the anticipation of good things despite how your year has gone.

The biggest question i faced this year was - can i be alone with myself and truly enjoy the company i keep in the empty moments.. and i have come to a very affirmitive answer.. not because it just happened, but because i learnt great lessons in those times, and i got to know myself from the core of who i am. In my moments on aloneness i had stepped out of myself somehow and experienced the stream of life, and when i made really good, close friends, i felt the stream of life...

Two very different streams of experiences with such very different flows.. and i became my own sun-warmed rock in the centre of each stream.. not dependent on anyone, yet interwined in everyone whom i love and who love me.

I have met myself. at 31 years of age, i know who i am, my dreams and goals firmly planted and rooted in my heart.

So as a new year draws in i find myself at the end of a thread of what wants to be written, an expectation of something more.. deeper, higher greater...

and i embrace it.

Merry Christmas and a Happy new Year to all...
