2013 in review wouldn’t exactly be my favourite topic. Fall-outs,
anger, angst, sadness, and rejection took their own time to slowly and
dramatically change my life for the better. For the good half of the year, I
had no faith in myself and was almost at the verge of settling for something
that I knew wasn’t worth my time at all – professionally and personally.
However, the miracle, in the form of an amazing job, taught me never, ever to
second-guess my talents and never to give up.
The most important lesson I have learnt this year is to
never limit myself. We often set so many invisible barriers around us and then
wonder why our lives have become miserable. I have been told so many times not
to get too comfortable with a city or take up a demanding job, simply because I
would never know when I would have to ‘give it all up’ as I am at a ‘marriageable’
age.
So, this year, my dreams are sky-high. I want to adopt a
cat, no matter what, this year. I want to learn to drive. I want to learn to
swim. I want to read as many books as I can. I want to muster up enough courage
to finally meet with a publishing house. Most importantly, I want to stop doing
things I don’t care about anymore. So, here’s to a fantastic 2014.
Happy new year!
