The book of 2012 is yet unwritten and the pages spread out before us, the paper white and unsullied with the mistakes, regrets and disappointments of 2011. It’s up to us now to fill in the blanks, to fill each page with colour, laughter and stories of our successes. It’s not going to be easy and at times we will stall as life throws yet another spanner in the works, but with the help of those we love, our faith in what is good and our friends, we might just look back this time next year and think, you know, 2012 wasn’t so bad after all. My friends I wish you all joy, love and hope in the coming year.
