A New Beginning

Inspired by someone's return to the blogging world, I thought I should also revisit my creation. and i have things to write about too... so much has happened in the last year. for starters, my marriage - which has brought a lovely person into my life. as for the downs, well let's just say 2011 hasn't been that generous. but that is life - maybe 2012 will have more ups and maybe everything will be much better and everyone will be happy. maybe I dream, but dreams do come true... and hopefully they will.
So last few weeks have been blissfully spent in traveling, gorging on yummy home cooked food and sleeping till noon. this trend shall continue for another few weeks - with friends' weddings coming up. the bride, the groom, the lehenga, the little starry lights, the mutton - so many beautiful things all at one place. how high will he be lifted before jaimaal? Will she be able to reach him? will she cry? so many question, so many moments to capture. I think it is going to be amazing.
And then I move to Hong Kong, the only 'global city' I have never been to before. I was excited about Tokyo, 3 years back, but it failed to live upto the expectation. I have always loved New York and London, but the friends might have been an important factor there. I loved Singapore, but it's almost like home. I have left my closest friends behind - I am going with a clean slate. Is it going to be crazy and tough, like Tokyo or will it take me in, like New York? will I live a part of my life there, like in London or will it be a fleeting pit stop in the continuous search for home - where family and friends all live together? there are so many questions I do not know the answer to right now, numerous aspects of my life in limbo. will this start tie all the lose ends or strain them even more? I don't know and there is no way of knowing right now. only thing I can do is enjoy the next few weeks and wish the best of luck and happiness to those embarking on new journeys themselves.
So to all those who might have had a rough 2011, I say keep fighting and never give up on things that matter because nothing in this world that is worth having comes easy. and from an eternal optimist to the world, as I read somewhere, 2012 - it is going to be legen...wait for it...dary!
