turning the long page of 2009

I liked this TIME cover.. Very cool i think.. It was an stuffed year i think.. very "intense" I must say.. Too intense actually.. Fights, arguments, happiness, misery, hopes, dreams.. and it all seems sooo long ago today.. memories from another lifetime perhaps... or maybe fictional memories.. A year of holding on and letting go, believing and losing faith and not necessarily in this order.. recurring fears and reassurances.. interesting, what? that it was controversial and contradictory.. Resolutions? Working on them.. I need a paradigm shift...
