Saying goodbye to the year of 2019

Opening our minds and our hearts to a new year of 2020 with optimism, positivity, and extreme drive towards success

Year 2019 has been full of challenges, ups & downs, sad & happy moments, small and big wins, and tough personal sacrifices and moments of new hope and future opportunities. I personally went through a very difficult loss in 2019, the loss of my father, whom I loved very much. It was a very difficult time not just for me, but for my entire family. During this tough time, I was once again reminded about the importance of having and being supported and surrounded by those who truly care about you. This not only includes your immediate family, but also those individuals outside of your family who are always there for you and are ready to help and support you when you need it the most, without you even asking. Without these individuals by my side, life would have been much, much more challenging during such tough times. Please note that I am not just talking about financial support when times are tough financially, but also emotional support. Having someone by your side with whom you can talk and share everything that’s on your mind and let it go, and for them to simply listen to you sharing and being there for you is so important that I can’t even express with words.

It is also very important to remember that life goes on, no matter how difficult it may be at times. Problems and disappointments will always be there, no matter how hard we try avoiding them, but so will be the successes, wins, and happy moments in life. Unfortunately, when we face tough times, we usually focus our full attention and energy on getting ourselves out of such tough times, but during the process we forget to focus on good and positive things in our life.

Please do your best to focus on positive things and situations you encounter each day, even when you may be going through some temporary tough times in your life. It’s critical to remember that after every tough period in our lives, comes period of opportunity and happiness. Remembering this helped me get through some very tough times I had lived through in 2019.

Be thankful for everything and everyone you have in your life today and continue to work towards achieving bigger and greater thinks in years to come. Also, be thankful for people who are always there for you, who expect nothing in return for their kindness, who just want for you to be happy, and do everything that you can to be there for them when they need your help and support, not because you have to, but because you genuinely care and want to help.

Have a wonderful, happy, and prosperous year 2020! You deserve it!​
