A New Beginning

As the year 2026 about to roll out I look forward to the New Year with a lot of hope, optimism and positivity. The beginning of every year brings good wishes from near and dear ones to start the journey of life all over again with new zeal.

I wish the New Year brings opportunities for new learnings. I hope physical health and awareness boosts mental health and awareness. I also want to figure out my role in this life, how I position myself in relationships so that it is beneficial to all involved. It may sound strange but I have recently realised that one has to constantly groom oneself to make one’s bondings stronger and better.

A purpose in life is very important. Living is not merely going through daily chores but doing something greater which gives satisfaction and confidence that this life is well lived.

In the last leg of our journey the creases should be smoothened out and clarity of thought emerge as to how to organise one’s finances and other material considerations so that no knots are left behind after the final crossover.

It’s really thought provoking how the priorities of life change as we age and gain experience. Keeping pace with changing times and requirements of the body and mind are foremost on my bucket list.

Spiritually, I aspire for deeper faith and bonding with God as well so that He fills my heart with gratitude for whatever I have or don’t have.

New Year is also a renewed lesson to know myself – my weaknesses and strengths and how to put both in use to reap benefits for self, family and community.

These are simple things but difficult to attain. I pray the angels are listening and silently saying yes.
