::@:: Reality of Dreams ::@::

What a year, and yet again nothing quite happened the way I intended, not that that is a bad thing. Of course I’m still not where I wanted to be, but at least I am not any further away.

So lets see, the numerous weddings all went well, I sold some art, I made new friends, and saw some amazing movies and read some good books, discovered music that was jaw droopingly beautiful, well to me at least. There were good times, but not as many as I would have liked, there were bad times but as always there were too many of them.

All in all it was a good year, better than some, not as good as others. Time marched on, as it does, well depending on current theoretical physics models… I hit 30 as did a few of my close friends, to say it was all joyous would be wrong but the great celebrations more than made up for any regrets that may have been felt.

I had some great opportunities this year and some I missed because despite my best efforts I am not perfect. Compared to a few years ago, however, I do see growth and development in every area of my life… even if others don’t. I know more, I am better at the things I have practiced at, and have had the opportunity to develop, and still I want more, to grow more, to develop more.

So all in all a good year and every promise of better to come.

…

Yes I know that was a bit weird, but I thought why not write my 2008 round up now and see how close I am when 2009 comes round… what you expect me to do something normal, please, don’t you know me! I guess I should have called a prophetic retrospective, but that’s just too odd even for me

Seriously though contained above are my hopes and dreams, as well as my fears, for the coming year. My prayer and hope is that in a year when I look back at this I can actually say that this year was so much more than that, in fact I claim the promise of Christ, that He came to give us life and life in abundance… which I suppose is very mush like the curse “may you live in interesting times” but all more, well, interesting

All the best to all you out there. Laters.
