Hello! 2014
by Bappy Golder
I have been humbled by you (those who surrounded me) who have showed and taught me how to be a better person by your thoughts and acts of kindness. I know I owe you a message, visit or a phone call. Whether I can do that or not, I want to thank you for keeping me in your thoughts and I want to remind you that you are in my thoughts too. I promise I will do my best to re-ignite the friendship we shared when we have the chance to write, talk or meet again.
The above lines are what I have been meaning to say to some of my friends lately. If you are reading this article you are probably one of them. So, thank you for being wonderful to me and to others during the past year!

New Year 2014
Wow, that was a lot to keep someone busy! No wonder I wasn't on Facebook that often. A lot has been conceptualised in the last year, I look forward to seeing some of them move forward in the coming year. HOPE YOU HAVE AN AWESOME AND HAPPY NEW YEAR 2014 AS WELL!
