Do I have any expectations of the new year? Do I have any dreams, hopes and wishes for the new year?
Don't we all? Isn't it so cliche if we say we hope all our dreams will come true.... we wish our lives to be happier, easier, wealthier, healthier and ..... we want to make amends of all the wrongs we have done .... we learn from all the mistakes that we have made..... we want to fulfill all the promises that we have broken .... we want ...OH! so many things ... which is typical of human nature.
Yet, at the end of the day, all we want is to lead a simpler, smoother and guided life in HIS path. To learn from all the wrongs that we have done. To meet meaningful people who will lead us closer to HIM. To better our prayers and deeds that we do. To make a habit of all the good things that we can do. To improve on our social skills so that we become a better, friendlier, nicer and kinder member of the society. To treat every living thing with empathy, sympathy and compassion. To respect nature and conserve it as it is entrusted unto us. To lead a better, meaningful and blessed life. To fully utilise every minute, hour, day, week and month given to us. To appreciate the little things granted to us with HIS compassion and grace. To uphold every lesson taught and drummed into us.
So, have a calm, peaceful, reflective new year. May it be year full of blessings, peace, love and warmth. Aamiin.
