First unlike most people I've always hated losing a year! To me it's like gambling and losing five dollars! You never get it back. The only good thing about losing a year is that you've hopefully learned something in the past year and now are more educated and/or more advanced in life.
I mean hopefully, you achieved some goals and if nothing else you've established memories. Some people will say "thank the creator" that year is over, maybe due to hardship. But remember you can never go back so you're a year closer to death! If you haven't gained something in the last year then you lost 365 days of you're life, never to regain it!
Even if you have a blessed year, it's one that is gone and never to return. It's for this reason that losing a day and a year always bothered me. I was never happy another arrived! Oh yeah you will see me with the glasses at a local establishment with people I enjoy and my love, but that is a reason for celebration not a reason to be happy I just lost a year!
After 30 you start appreciating days, weeks, months never mind years! After 50 you start hoping the time slows down like when you were 10 and in school and it took forever for the day to end! Unforgettably they speed up as you age.
So yes Happy New Year to you all! But for me, I am sad I just lost 365 days! Most of which I won't remember but I will feel!
