The Excitement of a New Year

I know that calendars are relatively arbitrary in the sense that our new year is not the same as other parts of the world. However there is something refreshing about the changing of the year. It is like a blank canvas ready for a new painting. What adventures will the year have in store for you and me?

People often look at January as a time to make resolutions. Perhaps they will drop a few pounds or learn a new skill. Last year I took up the guitar and have enjoyed it since. This is also the time for the consumer electronics show (CES) in Las Vegas. One of my colleagues who attended remarked about how large it seemed this year as he got to see what new electronic gadgets will be available in the near future. In the United States, we will have a new President. The press and media think that will shake things up a bit.

Yes we have a new year and so it is time to anticipate what the year has in store for us. My hope is that there is some exciting new technologies that actually make our lives better.
