Happy 2012!

It’s a brand new year and yet everything still seems like a blur to me. I have mixed feelings about 2012. It must be because this is gonna be a big year for me. When I say “big,” I’m not referring to success (though it won’t hurt if I get a bit lucky and become successful this year!). I’m actually talking about the changes that are gonna happen in my life.

First, I am getting married this year. My world is gonna turn upside down, but hopefully it’ll be for the better (right, Mr. Fiancé?). I’m very optimistic about that. Next, I won’t be the breadwinner of my family anymore. I will miss this title. It’s like something is gonna be taken away from me. I know I can depend on my brother to take on the responsibilities attached to the role but somehow, I am feeling a tinge of sadness. It must be because I know I’ll be missing my family (physically and emotionally) the moment I step out of our home to live with my new husband.

Before I entertain these mixed feelings that are starting to make me depressed and happy at the same time, I wanna voice out my gratitude to the one above for all the blessings I have received last year. I really can’t ask for more. I am the happiest because I am surrounded with my family and loved ones who, like me, are grateful for the graces and bounty that we have been enjoying until now.

This 2012, I wish us all a life full of hope, love, joy, happiness and meaning. God is really great! 🙂
