New year resolution

2009 has arrived.

2008 had been a bad year.

I personally believe we shape our own future. Life is never that simple. In this era of distractions and abundance of knowledge and power, it is easy to be a devil.

Many attempts their plans of achieving success, fame, power and money. My best friend once said, "It is never about what you have achieved, it is about what you really need". In this fast moving world, one hardly has the time to stop for a moment for a breather.

It is unsurprisingly that most of us lose track of what we really need and continue to pursue what we perceived as what we want. We are constantly being blinded by selfishness and greed. We blindly follow the asses of others and pursue what we all think is what we want.

Is it that tough to stop our tracks for a moment, sit down, take a breather and feel what we really need? Nothing is tough. All you need is purpose, belief and passion. Desire is a force easily tuned to the forces of evil.

Do yourself a favor and take a breather before you embark your journey of 2009.

Cheers
