2015: migremus

Secret War Journal[2015]
It is without doubt that 2015 is another event packed year for all of us. Now that the dust from the year 2015 is pretty much settled, it is once again a time for reflecting what went right and wrong during this amazing year.

I originally planned to start off writing down the highlights of this year but I decided to scrap this idea in the end. It was partly due to the fact that the more I looked at them, it feels less of a highlight to me. (I only have myself to blame for that! Hahas!)

As a result, I decided to scrap the traditional post style for the year's wrap-up (let's hope it will not become a trend).

Glazing at the snow globe...

That aside, I would say that taking into account everything that had occurred, it is a year into adulthood.

They never said being an adult means being independent. Quite the opposite actually. This year, it feels that being an adult means appearing strong and unfaltering while feeling insecure within. Adults are still humans after all. We all have our vulnerable sides but we choose not to show it in front of others.

(I guess all those deep talks with my father did have some effort on me huh?)

Which leads us to the main reason why this post required a total re-write - it is hard to judge whether something is a good or bad thing.

Is it a bad thing that certain individuals cease to maintain contact with you? Should we be upset about it? Does the fault lie with us? Does the fault lie with them?

If it is us, then we should work on improving ourselves.

Then turn it around...

However, sometimes, we have to acknowledge that we cannot please everyone. We win some, we lose some.

As funny as it sound, it may be a good thing if the situation was toxic to start with. Again, this is a matter of judgement from both sides.

And back to watch it settle

One year is too short a time to judge. As a result, there is difficulty in determining whether it was for the better or for worse.

Only time will tell.



Or will it?

So there isn't a highlight of what happened this year. Sorry about that. Hopefully, we get to see it in the year 2016!
