2008 seemed very long at certain junctures. As always, the happy moments were ever so fleeting. I suppose the end of the year is a good time to take stock of the blessings and lament (just a little) over the opportunities missed or mistakes made. Still isn’t it funny that we do this once a year and be clumsy about life for most of the time?

Maybe I grew a little better, maybe I didn’t. Whatever it is, I hope I’m humble enough to always look into the mirror closely at what/who I’ve become.
