Its December already! And I have to go on a vacation.
One more year is going to pass. And for some reasons December has always been associated with parties, get-togethers for me, not only because of usual Christmas-New Year eve fest-ing and feasting but also because of my tenures in different places had mostly ended in December. But this year I have seen more number of farewells in November; farewells of my colleagues from various offices across the globe. And that was quite a number.
And I am a sucker of good time, good food and good words.
I flaunted some of my beautiful dresses and got compliments (they are actually for my designer friend).I ate some nice food, got to know some recipes and gained some flab. I drank some bubbly and felt nice. I listened to those speeches and I saved two quotes for my blog post.
The first one is what Confucius once heard saying "Our greatest glory consists not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall" .
And the second is an Irish saying "May the road rise to meet you, may the wind be at your back, may the sun shine warmly on your face, the rain fall gently on your fields and may a kind and just God hold you in the palm of his hand until we meet again".
May you all have a nice time in the forthcoming festive season as I plan to go on a vacation.
And I am done with this one for the moment; need to catch some sleep after painting the town red…..oops, in my red dress.
Oops, I am still short of one blog from hitting a half-century..whats happening in the gardens of Eden?
