Few more days to go and we will enter into a new year of our respective lives. All of us might be starting with new hopes, new desires, new resolutions, new wishes and non other than memories of past.
I wish we could have a clear conversations or clear memory option which we could apply on every first of January. It would have been much easier to enter into a new year and start with new hopes and desires.
I wish entering into a new year could have been like stepping into a new home and doing "Grih Pravesh" and leaving behind the old home and forgetting the address as well.
I wish starting a new year could have been as exiting as starting a new level of "Mario" or "candy crush" or unlocking a new weapon in "Zombie" and I wish we could have felt as proud as we feel while unlocking a new stage in the game.
I wish entering into new year could have been like entering into the transparent wall as we used to watch in "Harry Potter movies" or "Shaka Laka Boom Boom-the Hindi version of the same" or the movie "Abra-Ka-Dabra" again the Hindi version of the same, leaving behind the school room and facing the new world of challenges.
I wish the real world could have been as exciting as we see in our imaginary world!!!
But reality can never be imagined and hence it is called "life". You just can't predict another second of your life which could actually turn into a memory for the whole life- no matter good or bad. While we cherish the happy moments, the sad ones pinches a lot. Somewhere deep inside your heart you remember the past year or years and the lessons learnt from the same. Imagine the good memories which you cherished at that particular point of time, may be a phone call from the love of your life, a lovely voice, a blessing giving you strength, a kiss on your forehead, a hand holding yours giving you warmth, a hug warm enough to make your forget all your sorrows, someone's eyes revealing the deep ocean of love in the heart and while remembering the same a tiny drop of water embellish the corner of your eye.
Our New Year starts with some of those memories. While opening the eyes and feeling the coziness of the quilt on the new year's morning we all should feel blessed to be lucky enough to enter into a new year and see a new year of our life with our loved ones. We must be thankful to god for giving us one more opportunity to start an year with fresh and positive energy. But does entering into a new year helps forgetting the scars of the past? "Move On" is a word everybody loves to use but is it really possible in a day. If till the end of the last year you get stuck with the memories and keep on dwelling into the past then how could entering into a new year make any difference because as a matter of fact it is going to be just a day and fortunately it would be the first of the next month with just an addition in the number of years you have lived till now.
I am also excited for the new year as always, but this time I did not make any resolutions. It is not that I am perfect but I have realized the truth of breaking the "swears". I have realized that if your own mind can force you to break a simple resolution then you cannot expect for the promises to be completed by anyone else. I have realized that if your own heart fails at a moment then you cannot expect others to make efforts to win your heart. For me this year was full of realizations. I have realized that nothing is permanent in this world. But after all these realizations my mind is still stuck at one question.
Is it Over?
After so many realizations you carry on with trusting.. The truth is that you do not trust anybody, you just have a belief that someday everything would be alright and that's how you stand up again and move on. But does moving on with a new year really means that it is actually over? Each and every new day reminds you of the good moments which you are not able to cherish right now. Each and every step which you take to move on reminds you of the fact that you are moving on from a past memory and you don't have to remember that anymore. Every time you think of trusting the present you touch your scars once and feel whether it still pains or not.
And that's how you move on!!
But my question is same. Is it over?
No it is not!!
Past never leaves your hands and you have to hold the the past while moving. Yes ofcourse you have to learn to ignore the past which is holding your hand but while walking when the sweat on your hand makes you feel about that past which is still holding your hand, you start looking at those scars which were given by that past which is still holding your hand.
No it is not over yet but you have to step into a new year with new hopes. You have to learn the new lessons of optimism and move on. You gotta learn new skills, cherish the beauty of life and all the good and bad moments because if it would have been smooth it wouldn't have been life. I am happy that I am entering into a new year with a new ray of hope and positiveness in my life. I am open for opportunities and have trust on my abilities. I have grown as an individual and as a social person. I have learnt the trick of showing happiness irrespective of feeling low from inside. Confident than ever before optimism helps you to achieve inner peace and that's how it helps you to enter into a new year.
And then finally on the last day of the year you will be able to say "Yes it is over" no matter actually it is or not but a new year always comes in everybody's life.
Happy New Year!!
