I join Jikon in breathing a huge sigh of relief at the end of 2003. My New Year's Eve was spent talking to a dear dear friend, and while I can't seem to recall what we talked about, I remembered how I felt after the conversation.
The transition between 2003 and 2004 for me can be likened to grabbing hold of a herd of raging bulls by their nostrils and telling them to just shut up and take a nap.
The bulls have taken a nap, long enough for the dust to settle and for the sky to turn blue again. The same blue I saw when my pilot was speeding on the second day after the first day of this year. The same blue I saw after my first visit to the big Ikea. The same blue that I saw today.
Just as well that the blue skies emerged. My friends are back, and it's my turn to help clear their storms.
Update: I spoke too soon.
