The dawn as it does

It's a strange feeling when the first day of the New year dawns. We pray hard, we make promises to our people, to ourselves and not to forget... the uncanny resolutions that we make without thinking if that will actually be respected??

"Well, resolutions are meant to be broken"; they say.. but why don't we actually try to make these resolutions and promises work, so that the prayers that we do on the first day are answered without much efforts of the person up there to make them true!

My New Year was something like that... I made a promise, and till now, by whosoever's grace, it is working.. :) However, all the other promises that I have been making since childhood.....get broken on the 2nd day itself. Probably, it's something like a recurring chain every year, that I make this promise on the 1st day (irrespective of the year, the resolution remains the same) and I break it on the second day.


This year was, however, a bit different.I guess it was the first time in my life that I stayed up the whole night and enjoyed, partied, played, giggled, talked.... Whoa Whoa! Party in my sense is the synonym of food that we cook, pranks and games that we play and the masti attached to it!! The game of UNO!!! How can one forget that to mention here? It has become like a mandatory game in every function now ;)

Life's just not a game of UNO. It has a different meaning attached to it, and I hope that this year would wishfully be what I have thought of. The year being so crucial to me! My graduation, further studies?! With all my desires, aspirations and dreams carved like those beautiful ships carved in a light bulb, I pray that the year bring the ever alliterated luck, love and life, prosperity and success to not only myself.. but also to my family, friends and all those beautiful lovely people who dream big this day!
