The end of 2010

So today is the last day of 2010 and for me I can't wait to turn my back on the events of this previous year.  Well actually, I'm only referring to the awful parts of the year, it's just that those bad moments are always the ones that are in the forefront of my mind.  I'm trying to teach myself to hang onto the good times and not let the bad ones cloud my mind. 

There is a lot of symbolism in the beginning of a new year and I'm looking forward to this one and all the opportunities it will bring (Mexico here we come!).  I will regain my confidence, I will find a new job (maybe in teaching), EleBoo Photography will continue to grow and life will go back to normal.  It's still hard to compare my situation now with my situation 12 months ago, but I do believe that everything happens for a reason, maybe the events that started on March 17 2010 happened to teach me something, I just don't know yet fully what that was.

I'm not naive enough to believe that everything in 2011 will be good, I mean that would be boring, but the difference now is that I will take everything in my stride and know that there is always a solution and always a light at the end of the tunnel, however long that tunnel may be.  So, in 2011, I will find a new solicitor and I will begin the process of seeking compensation, I can't say that I'm relishing that process, but it's not right that nothing should happen.  After all, it's not just me that's been through hell, my friends and family have been through the mill too.  It's thanks to them, that I'm still here and still sane.  Most of all, there's my Bushbaby, constant, loving, strength-giving, laugh-making and full of positivity.  Thank you from the bottom of my soppy heart.
