TIME has got to be the most ingenious of all creation.
It allows memories and experiences, both good and bad. It allows the maturing of the mind and the gaining of wisdom. It allows progress and development of anything and everything. It allows historical moments and fervent hope in the future. It allows the appreciation of what we've been put through. It allows the appreciation of what we've been spared. It allows one to move on. It allows the slate to be wiped clean. It allows new beginnings and fresh opportunities.
It is the gateway to the limitless window of the past, present and future. It is pure. It is untainted. It invites the best in us. It makes us want to do better. It urges us to set things right. It encourages us to press on. It gives us hope.
And whether we choose to spend the crossover in quiet prayer at church, or at home with the family, or out in the cold on the streets of Time Square, or at random countdowns at Clarke Quay or other party spots, it is this hope that brings meaning to those of us who bother to look for it.
So here we go.
