There are really a lot of synonyms for the word "begin". To start off, we have to begin the initiation of engendering the activation of the inciting of the commencement of the launch. See? I can create a nonsensical sentence with those words. They're rather useful, though, since we'll be starting a whole new line of things now, and it's stupid and tiring to use the same word over and over again.
As the dawn of 2009 settles, I would like to share to you not what has happened, as other people and television programs do, but what will happen. I'm not being clairvoyant or anything, but I would like to point out some of the beginnings that is happening in my point of view around the world. I feel it is a better kick-off for 2009.
1. The new administration in USA
-Okay, so maybe it has already started. But then we haven't seen much of President Barrack Obama's work yet. He hasn't laid a foundation yet. So his administration is still in the starting point. Let's hope that we see Pres. Obama's leadership in a better light this year. USA remains as the superpower country today, so anything that may happen to it may affect all of us.
2. Economic crisis coping
-We are facing a crisis here, people. And it's not gonna alleviate itself. This had already started, too, but let's pray that 2009 wouldn't be a hard time for our country and for the whole world. We are humans; we can evolve. And evolution starts now.
3. Environmental problems
-We went to Baguio for New Year (that's why I wasn't able to post for the first two days of 2009). I've been going there since I was a kid, but the cold I experienced there was nothing like I've felt before! The temperature dropped to 10 degrees Celsius, people! My fingers almost became popsicles!! I experienced a solid example of climate change. I don't think of the problem as mythical or hypothetical anymore!!! Please, SAVE THE EARTH AND ALL WHO ARE LIVING IN IT!!!
For now, I'll leave you to ponder on those beginnings. I'll begin my own journey into writing, and I will delve "further into literature than anyone else". My friends, as we begin, let's keep in mind what it took to start, and to be wary of the coming obstacles. Happy New Year, my friends!
