My 2011 Year-Ender

2011, what a year it has been!

Busy and hectic,
Tiring but fulfilling.
At times, hope was just a gleam.
It was the love month, then.
Oh, the unexpected reward of such hard work came!
It was beyond words to describe such appreciation.

Dubbed as the gadget year,
Bought, won and received techie items.
Dubbed as the foodie year,
Had lunches or dinners in never-tried restaurants multiple times.
Dubbed as the friendship year,
I befriended people whom I have never talked to.
Went to reunions and reaching out.
Kept in touch with friends.
They were awesome!
Dubbed as the exploration year,
Went to Enchanted and to other places.
Accepted challenges.
Took chances.
Dubbed as the speak-now year,
Confronted different people countless times.
At times where I felt I became a victim
Of injustice or unfair treatment,
Of disrespect,
Or of anything that was really wrong.

It was a wonderful year,
Amidst the ups and downs.
Along the way,
There were lessons and experiences
To which I will value
As I continue this journey.

Cheers to the new year ahead! :)
