The best year of my life

As the year comes to an end, it makes some sense to go back into our memories and attempt to select the year that seemed to be the very best in our entire existence. The exercise is worth the effort and like any matter of choice, is never quite easy.

Lives are all different and depending on the intensity of some events (or lack thereof) and the amplitude of ups-and-downs between years, the final selection can be daunting and may leave us totally puzzled and unable of choosing one year over so many.

For me, and without getting into excessive “soul-searching,” the year that ends today - that's right, 2012 - seems to stand right at the top of the heap and I feel good, grateful and happy about it.

Happy New Year to all!
