New Year 2013

Dear friend,
Thanks for being a part of my life this past year. Another year has gone by, in a blink of an eye... well it was one of the most topsy turvy year I have ever experienced...
People came into my life and many of them are here to stay, some changed their labels and some moved away, some came back but many remained...
My best friend got married and I invited another person in my life... some people unknowingly gave me more happiness than I could imagine, while some caused me pain. Few lost important people in their lives, and some stood up for me in my darkest moments. Many celebrated the first anniversary of their love, some brought little bundles of joy into the world....
I cried, I laughed... but most of all I had you people around me.
Now for the next year that lies infront of us, I wish everyone of you and your families, loads of love, health and blessings... hope all your dreams come true.
Many of you are going to begin a new phase of your life, wish you luck for your future...
Lots of love and luck for the new year,
Sue

Christmas day 2012

Christmas is supposed to be the most magical day of the year... it is this day, that people look forward to every year... the sentiments and traddition that go along with it, have been built for ages together.
We have our own tradditions at home, pork is cooked and everyone enjoys it... on Christmas eve we go to Church and celebrate Jesus's birth. Then in the morning its resting and eating pork from breakfast to dinner... and then the evening is spent in receiving guests, meeting grandparents and distrubuting sweets to our neighbours.
But in the last 5 years tradditions have changed... as people were added to our family of 3; our priorities changed and as my brother moved away, people who were added broke away and our family somehow came closer together.
This year's Christmas may have not been the warmest... it was one of the worst ones compared to the past years but somehow the only thing that makes me feel Christmasy is not the carols, nor the crib or my beautiful Christmas tree... but the people I surround myself with ~ my friends, who every passing day become more like family to me and an irreplaceable family. And I am ever grateful to God for bringing them into my life, and only thing I can do is hope that they will be there with me for the years to come, with the additions and subtractions that life naturally carries along with it...
Wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a lovely new year 2013.
