Another new year titled as the year of "Golden
Pig" has kicked in. Golden Pig
might sound like the following 365 days would be paved with a red carpet for
all lucky gold diggers and go getters who will take much pride in their rich
harvest. Everyone has big or small goals or expectations for this brand new
bunch of days ahead.
It doesn't matter how old you are when it comes to build
and rebuild your grand schemes. Wait, let me put it differently. It doesn't matter how YOUNG you are when you're
about to revamp your dreams and plans. It is because the shiny new packet of
days are equally given to everyone of us. To some out there who are terminally
ill or diagnosed with irremediable diseases,
the new year ahead must feel totally different. Every single day for those ill
people in dire situations, the fresh bunch of year called 2019 must seem more
precious and priceless than those who just keep noodling around with the days given. If you are lucky enough to be
in good shape as you speak, let the spirit of people desperately longing for
tomorrow be yours and mine.
No matter how old, young, healthy, or sick, you can
create the new batch of days just
the way you love at your own pace. Even if there's unexpected glitches or obstacles in your way, do
not freak out or despair. Just take them as refreshing elevenses
or pitstop in a race that you could
savor for recharging yourselves. That way, the year of Golden Pig will make
your own piggy dreams fly high even when pigs don’t fly in 2019. Happy piggy
new year to you all!!!
