2010 went so fast that it seems like it was in a fast forward mode. I think this was the year that was the most relaxing one so far. I know that is a strange thing to say but it really was a calm, peaceful and joyful year; I almost don’t want it to end. But I know that the end really is the beginning of something more wonderful so I have nothing but more joy to look forward to in 2011.
This was the year when Saif (my son) started school, it was quite an experience for him as well as for me as I have talked about in my article parenting 101.
This was the year I realized that I really am living in a divine matrix. Situations that manifest reflect how I feel at that moment, that is why feeling good is my top priority. My reality is shaped by my state of being and it is how I look at things that determine what effect I get out of them. Nowadays nothing seem to bother me even if something appears to be negative I don’t feel like obsessing about it and the funny part is that it transforms itself in to something positive or goes away.
In 2010 I didn't posted a lot of new articles on this blog, on average I think I wrote one article per month but surprisingly as compared to last year the traffic to my website has doubled. I had a great time writing whatever articles I did post.
I think starting this website was one of the best decisions that I made in my life. I am having such fun with it, I remember in the beginning I was concerned about if I should write about such and such topic or what would people say when they read it but now it doesn't really matter to me. In fact I really enjoy negative comments, yes I am getting weirder by the day :)
An update on being a vegetarian, I am not one anymore. Though raw food like salads and fruits are a big part of my diet but occasionally I do have some white meat like fish or chicken.
I don't want to label myself as a vegetarian or otherwise. At any given moment I eat what I find enjoyable.
This year I had many opportunities to appreciate myself, my life and the people in it. I feel blessed that I know where I am going while being completely at ease with where I am now.
As for my plans for New Year's Eve, well I will do what I enjoy doing the most that is watching my favourite shows on TV, a cup of cappuccino and some snacks.
Probably first we will go out for an early dinner then put Saif to bed around 7 pm, then Ahmed and I have the evening to ourselves. They are showing Avatar on new year's eve, love that movie. Then at midnight we have a wonderful fireworks display which will probably wake Saif up :)
