One more year has passed and yes! the fact is that we all grew an year older and gained some wisdom and knowledge. I hope everyone of us enjoyed every moment of passed year because the those moments are NEVER to come back again in our lifetime. We are on the one way journey of life so enjoy every moment of the life has to offer...
Year 2008 was a historic year in many ways and it will be written on BLACK, BOLD letters in history book so lets keep that to historians but few things that come to my mind are ....
- Financial market crashed, DOW index is down 34% - worst since great depression in 1929
- Housing Bubble - prices are in free fall most of the nations
- Recession year where most of us lost significant wealth in the stock market - loss of 6 years of profit so in terms of wealth we stand on the same place where we started 6 years ago..i.e 2002.
- Commodity prices raised record high ($147 oil) and now it stands at $38 in 6 months - can you believe that? This means that some greedy people are manipulating the system and we poor bystanders who are feeling the heat...
- US Presidential election, OBAMA is elected.
- Terror attack in Mumbai that again reminded that India needs to tighten the security belt
- many more .. TV channels will recap for us ....
But the best part of humans is the tenacity, resiliency and as a whole Globe we recover stronger and bolder, yes! some territories of this Globe are taking longer than others but do not forget there is HOPE and we all live by it.
I think all the above events that happened in 2008 reminds me that we no longer live in the physical boundaries of one Country but we are GLOBEZEN. Everyone is connected and we all are linked in some shape or form, it may be Global Warming, Economy.
I visited places (east of this Globe to West, North) and observe so much similarities in the people, we may have difference in materialist things, lifestyles in everyone's life but the basics fundamentals of everyone's life is very very similar so basically brain may differ the heart is very very similar but difficult part is that the door to heart will only open when it comes to fundamentals - bit more complex to put details in here. So at the end we all have moments when we are struggling to overcome own problems and on the other hand moments of joy, pleasure, happiness. The simple equation of successful life for me (believe me, I understand how complex the life is.... )
Successful Life = happy moments > Sad Moments
I wish that everyone of you out there having a successful life and enjoying...
