Bye Bye 09 - Bring on 2010!


And so... here we are... waiting for a brand New Year to start! And this time around... I could not be more ready for a new cycle to kick in!

2009 was the year of New beginnings for many people out there! The year that Americans learn to deal again with economical hardship! We all had to reinvent ourselves and even for those that like me, got to keep their jobs... we did so by increasing our work hours, gathering extra functions and doing so for less or for the same pay!

We all took a hit in our pockets and we all got more worried about each other BUT this crisis/ recession may be also remembered as the time that brought we all closer together! I personally, have never made as much donations before as I did this year: Salvation Army, Red Cross, Charity Water, WWF, Humane Society... if I could I would give much much more but just to be able to help those that are going through much harder moments... was satisfaction and instant gratification on itself!

We worried not only about our own families but about our neighbours and friends and often times we even worried about total strangers! We heard and saw in the news... all the stories about folks that were losing everything... their homes, their vehicles, their possessions, their savings... I mean... It was a hard year, a year of financial stress and a year of losses BUT somehow, somewhat, someway we did it! We made through the hardship and together we are all hoping for a much better 2010!

I grew up hearing a saying, when there was hardship around... and it goes kindda like this... "God only places obstacles in the way of those that can overcome them"! I firmly believe that things can and will only get better now! Not only because of positive thinking but for 2 main reasons:

1 - It just cant get any worst, the economy has reached rock bottom and it simply has nowhere else to go other than a recovery trail... Uphill!

2 - We are still the United States of America and whether you like it or not... we will still set the bar in many sectors and we will still set the example and standards to many other nations to follow! We are and will be for a long time a Leadership nation, a Vanguard country of entrepreneurs and immigrants that have one major thing in common: We just don't quit! And that "never given up" Yank attitude will return prosperity to our land... It's compound progressive energy... It's as American as it gets since the time of the first settlers and pilgrims! It's the only way we now... We move forward!

I believe that 2010 will be a year of recovery and growth! I still believe in Obama to do a good job representing us in Washington... BUT above all I believe in the people of this country and those like me that live away from "Wall Street" and down here in "Main street"! I know that we can get out of this mess and rebuild a much better country.... That's what we are all about!

On a personal note... I'm also so very excited about 2010! It has everything to be a year of major changes for me! I'm deeply hoping that I can finally wave my Green Card high in the air! I also have a reunification moment ahead of me, right about in February.... with somebody very very very special in my life and that I can't wait to see again!

I'm definitely hoping for bigger and better things to happen and to come my way... and it sure would be even greater if many others around me: friends and foes, known people or total strangers where also starting to get back a little bit of joy in their lives! After all.... this entry is not about me but about us all... AND United we will ALWAYS stand!

I would like to finish up wishing a Merry Christmas and a Wonderful New Year to everybody reading, yet, another late night posting... and leave you all with my toast to an Outstanding 2010: Let it be a year full of joy, with lots of money in our pockets! That we may all live well, be prosperous and that we all stay healthy enough to even give a little bit away! ;) God Bless all of you!

Bring on 2010! Cheers!
