Diary of a Lost Wanderer

Source: Google Images I have always believed that an end did not necessarily mean The End as it also means a new beginning. So here we are on the last day of the year, waiting for the new one to start with bated breath. Some of the things I think of when I look back at 2013:

Last year this time I was turning the pages of life exclaiming all is well to me.   This year all that I can think of is Que Sera Sera – what shall be, will be.   Source: Google Images

It's been a whirlwind of a year. So many ups and down, many accomplishments, so many failures- lost some people from my life, added some overall I can say a year well lived. And what better way to end it than getting to read a review of your blog in such beautiful words.   Source: Google Images   I am part of a wonderful online FB group called Indiblogeshwaris where we had decided to be Secret Elfs to each other and review our blogs. So my secret elf was a wonderful fellow blogger Ruchira Khanna who blogs at Abracadabra .   Some of the words from her review which were truly touching were:   " Such a person can only inspire others if she loves and respects her life, no matter what!

I strongly believe - Every time you have one reason to frown life sends you at least ten reasons to smile! Just few days back I had been lamenting how I have been not able to write the way I used to before for various reasons and today morning I woke up to a lovely comment by a wonderful fellow blogger Jyostna Bhatia who blogs at Dreams and Dimensions  on my I Love page.
