it's been a good year

on 1 January 2013 i overslept, which made me worry a bit about how this year would turn out ... and yes, i must admit it has been a year in which i was late for work more than once ... thank God for the lovely students who have accepted my eccentricity ... next year i will try to be more punctual ...


another thing that was a tad of a challenge was dealing with the authorities ... next year, may i please have a Cake Boss? thanks, Moni for reminding me of this song:


gratefully made it to the last 10 days of 2013. though some have said it's been a messy period, to me this year has brought a lot: clarity, better health, sports and good spirits. 

among the lessons learned, one of the most important ones for me has been to give up the need to meet (social) requirements because that's the proper way in life. this one little thing can be like learning the alphabet again, because the entire focus will shift from the outer realm towards ... in my case, back to some of the things i adore: cartoons, pets, making presents, reading until 3 in the morning and laughter. 


love, gratitude and harmony have returned to my life and the three years i have been smoke-free seem like a beautiful present to top the cake i will eat over the holidays. so people, do feel happy and look forward to a harmonious and excellent 2014!
