525600 minutes-How Do You Measure a Year in Your Life???

Let me share with you a song I always play when the end of a year draws near:-



Seasons Of Love

Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes
Five hundred twenty five thousand moments so dear
Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes
How do you measure, measure a year??

In daylight,
in sunsets,
in midnights,
in cups of coffee,
In inches, in miles
in laughter in strife,

In Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes
How do you measure a year in the life

Chorus:-
How about Love?? (x3)
Measure in love
Seasons of love (x2)

Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes
Five hundred twenty five thousand journeys to plan
Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred minutes
How do you measure the life of a woman or a man

In truth that she learned
or in times that he cried??
In the bridges he burned
or the way that she died??

Its time now to sing out
though the story never ends
lets celebrate remember a year
in the life of friends

(chorus)

Wow..2009 has swept right through me.
It certainly does NOT feel like it has been a year. But it has been.
To be critical, going from 2009 to 2010 isn't really THAT big deal. Just to celebrate the finish of the Earth completing another full circle around the Sun. It is another day; the sun still rises and sets,a day still has 24 hours. But it is good to sit and do a self-assessment on what I have done and achieved in another year of my life.

Reflecting on 52 weeks,365 days,8766 hours,525600 minutes...2009 has been a year filled with a lot of new things for me. Many memories..good and bad. Of course, some people tend to say to leave the bad behind and take the good with you to a new year; but I prefer to take both with me bearing in mind both good and bad make me what I am and will be. I am looking forward to 2010 and the new things and experiences it will bring. :)

So as you prepare to welcome 2010 with merry making, may you greet the New Year with good spirits, new hope, new goals and strong determination to make the best out of it. May 2010 be another year which you will look back with a smile and a toast.
God bless you.
