I just remembered that I used to blog!

So, I had a little (not so little) chat with a friend, thanks to the custom of people wishing each other a Happy New Year. But in that little conversation, I remembered that I used to blog and loved it too. So I had to write one.

2015 was a blast. Definitely a year worth remembering. But what we learn over time is that it is not a good idea to ponder over the past and think about it. What is ahead is what matters.

Though this year will be special because I have had a decent share of music playing/listening this time. Including a cover with some new people who have turned out be my best friends. Read +Krithika S  And a cover with my best buddies in Goa (Read +ankur saxena  +samagra singh ). And for that there has to be a song of the year. And after a lot (not so much) of detailed analysis of all the brilliant songs that have come out this year, I choose: Ruby by Tejas Menon.




So, go ahead, play it before you read more.

Done? Let's continue then.

2016, What have you got for us man? I hope it's something really nice. Years have come and gone very swiftly. Some of them I don't even remember, so useless they were. Don't be one of them.

2016, Be a year of character. Even if you are not so nice sometimes, make sure you make it up to us. Even if you hurt us, even if you do us apart from our loved ones. Make sure we find new people whom we can love.

2016, Be a year of success. You will fail us sometimes, that's okay. That is what we want because that helps us learn and improve. But make sure you give us success too. At the end we work hard, we could use some motivation.

2016, Be a year of inspiration. We make resolutions which we don't keep. Inspire us, so that we can do what it takes to be one step closer to our dreams.

2016, Be a year of fun. We get tired of our everyday lives man. Do give us some trips with our friends so that we can have a little fun. Get drunk, Sing in public, Eat. And then drink some more!

2016, Be a year of pain too. We need to understand that we have to learn to live with pain. We have got to be strong. We have to learn how to handle tough situations. Don't let us be fragile.

2016, Be a year of kindness. Some of us could just use kindness, you know. Talk nicely to us when we need it.

2016, Finally, be a year of self-respect. Be a year we could all proudly say that it was the best year we have ever had till date. So that we also try to be the best people we can and respect ourselves. Because before respecting someone else, we need to do things to be able to respect ourselves. And after that, respect time. And that's you 2016.

Because time is all we've got. 2016, you are all we've got.

Make it count.
