Dear 2016,

Last year, and the year before that, and the year before that…for as long as I can remember, I’ve just wished for a ton of cash to come my way on the 31st of December and afterwards – I’m not Asian, so I don’t get envelopes full of money to welcome in the New Year, sadly.

This year, I want to make a bit of a change to my habit.

No, I’m not praying for a greener world, nor asking for world peace, nor advocating that everyone burns their clothes and bums a ride to a Third World country to dig wells for Malaria-ridden brats, because to be honest, that ’s never gonna happen no matter how many people ‘Like’ on Facebook, ‘Retweet’ on Twitter, Post on Tumblr, upload pictures of cityscapes and nature overloaded with filters on Instagram, or even blog on LiveJournal.

This upcoming year, I’m not asking for anything that is impossible.

My main wish is for everyone whom I care about to have the best of health.  

2015, for me and the people I care about, has been filled with illnesses, injuries, and deaths. And for a year that has gone by so quickly, it makes it all the more terrifying.

I hope that everyone understands that life is short, and sometimes our timelines don’t match up – we don’t get to share many moments with the people we cherish, because of work, or responsibilities, or even because death interrupts our plans - so you should make sure that the people you love know how you feel about them.

I’ve never been good at heartfelt monologues, so let me end it on this note. My wish amongst the mess I’ve gone through these past few years is this….

Bestow the best health on those whom put others before themselves; Give the greatest happiness to those whom have lived without it; Offer opportunities to those whom have never had a chance; and let the excessive vices of booze, , sarcasm, and rage be forgiven ahead of time.

Last but not least, let karma really be the Mother of all ers. Bring down a plague of biblical proportions to strike the fear of all the Gods into any of the whom cross my loved ones.
Amen.
 

    P.S.
Finding a winning lottery ticket, or having an accidental payment of a few hundred grand clear in my bank account wouldn’t go unappreciated. Thanks.

Sincerely,
    The who has taken all of your bad luck, foul attitudes, down-putting, dreams broken, betrayals, and tragedies so far with a pinch of salt without killing a .

Let’s say a Goodbye and wave farewell to:
Monster eyebrows, horrific contouring, stuck up es, bad liars, confusing love interests, incompetent people, weak characters, cliché plots, one too many sequels, ratchet weaves/extensions, and the nightmare which is public transport!
