Please tell me the truth.

January is one of my favorite months of the year. You are kind of still on vacation, even if you work from the 1st on. People are starting out slowly, warming up, getting ready.
After a wild 2008 most of us are happy to start over again. A new year - a new beginning.
But, can we trust 2009? Please, tell me the truth, do you think it will be a good year?
Yes. I believe it will be actually great! After we found out in 2008 that we can't go on living like there is no tomorrow, we actually all started working harder, spending wiser, and treasuring time over material.
I think we woke up, stretched, read the news at breakfast and are now ready for a 2009 rock'n roll.
