Happy New Year

Ten years have quickly past since we celebrated the new Millennium. The New year's day is as new as the other nine New year's days, and yet just as common as any one of the days in my life.
These few years, I feel a change in my mind-set. I don't know exactly what it is. The change may be very slow and small, so much so that I can recognize it only once in a year, on the New Year's day. Things feels quieter and calmer... to me. It is like my dog. She can't hear. But she must feel the change has happened not in herself but in the world. The world suddenly became quieter.
Maybe I am wrong. Maybe I haven't changed at all. I am not sure...
Today I am happy to be able to have the New Year's Day under such a beautiful weather. The sky is blue and the sunshine is bright and brilliant. What's the matter with the small change inside me?
I wish everyone a Happy and Prosperous New Year. I really wish.
