I would like to dedicate my 1st post on Facebook and my blog this year to the people who made it possible for me to make it through 2010.2010 was the best year of my life (so far). By this I do not mean that I was relaxing on white sandy beaches while the rest of you were working; I mean it was a year during which I had many growth opportunities (read challenges), a year during which I spent most of the time outside my comfort zone, in the courage zone. Sometimes I made the decision, and some other times I did not really have a choice but to step up. But at the end of the day, I have emerged stronger, and a better person. I have decided to overlook the not-so-nice parts of the year, and instead focus on the positive. Hey, don’t get me wrong, a lot of great stuff happened, just that I don’t want to make it seem like everything fell into place all the time.

During the course of the year, a lot of things happened, but I do not want to bore you with those details in this post. Like I said in the first sentence, this is a thank you note to everyone who in their own way contributed to the successes of 2010. Today I would like to put emphasis on those people who were with me even when it was not convenient or easy, those who know both my strengths and my (many) weaknesses, those that I made promises to and did not come through… basically those that had all the reason to walk but chose to stay. Thank you. Words cannot come close to describing the gratitude that I feel inside me.

I look forward to a lot this year; I look forward to a bigger and better year, another one with all of you.
