Goodbye 2015, Hello 2016

To describe the year is an understatement as there are hundreds and millions of inner turmoil that paved the way to a very unhealthy me. Financial loses, my father's demise, sibling separation, and friends wayward, how could I possibly start when all I hope for is an end.  So goodbye to 2015 what with all its miseries and conflicts, its debacles and challenges, its turmoil and altercations. 


A loud reverberating sound from a Buddhist gong signifies start and end
so I then conclude 2015 and embrace 2016.

And hello to 2016 what with its new challenges and unknown gifts.  May this year be a year of love and peace among men.  We welcome all that is good and all that will make our lives better and stronger. 

Happy New Year!

  7. Hello Cristine,

    It is the first Christmas without my parents and see their loss as one of the saddest thing of 2015. There are many good things that haplened but there were also a number of accidents and health problems last year. There are a number of old friends who came back and a lot who disappeared. My goal this year is to make new ones and take care of those who treasure mine. Thank you for being a part of my blog as well. Will blog pa more!

  9. Hello Sir Jo! We might experience ups and downs on the previous year but let us remember that there's a lot to hope for that will unfold this 2016. Happy New Year!

  10. Hello Froi,

    Yes, ups and downs are part of growing and living. We use the down part to rise up and the up ones to stay. That's how I look at my experiences. Though death is different thus the posting. And being alone is, when everyone I see in FB celebrated Christmas and New Year with their entire family.

    Happy New Year my friend!

  11. I could not find the right words to cheer you up since the minute this post was up. I read it and came back three times.
    Be strong and learn from the journey you have walked alone. Sit by the oceans often and watch the waves come and go. The waves will roll every new happiness and wealth to your face. The waves will roll back, bringing away all your sorrows, bitterness and pain.
    The tides in the ocean will rise up and down like our lives. Nothing is permanent. Your days will get better each day in 2016.

  12. Hello TM,

    Probably one of the most philosophical I have ever read. There are many good things of 2015 but because it was also the first of many things last year, I posted tribulations and conflicts. But just like the coming of the tides, I saw nothing much because the water was high and not being patient enough to wait for the water to come down to see more islands around.

    I resolve to make things better this 2016 embracing I am stronger than ever even without the people I had loved so much.
