Purr Inside Of Me

It’s time to sum up another year. Have you ever noticed, that I’m a blogger for almost 16 years?
I wrote my first note when I was in my primary school. I remember, that I used not-existing blog platform (eblog) that time… It was my first contact with HTML and JavaScript.

I’m afraid I don’t have notes from this time anywhere. I probably lost them all when I was moving between different platforms (I did it few times). The oldest note I have on my computer is from 14th of January 2006. Believe me - I felt really strange while reading it now!
For now, I’m not sharing the whole archive with you, but maybe one day I’ll publish it ;)

What 2017 has brought for me?
A lot of positive things for sure - several achievements, a lot of happy coincidences and some of the unconcern, but also a lot of disappointments and sorrow.

Tomorrow is New Year’s Eve.
I feel that I will expect from 2018 nothing more than achieving stabilization, independence and keeping possibility for making my dreams come true. We’ll see how it work after 1 year…
I hope next year will be better than this one!
I also hope that you’ll get everything the best, I wish you joy, health, and feeling of fulfillment in every dimension. Let yourselves to make mistakes and to be an egoist sometimes; try to live your lives like tomorrow would never come - in full swing and with great fanfare!
