The night on new year's eve is always said to be one of the festive night where family and friends come together to celebrate the end of the year, but for some it is also the coldest night of the year.
Gazing out the window, all he sees are the street lamps illuminating the street and houses with their lights still lit up. He look up to find no moon on that night. It might be higher up or it wasn't visible from his room, either way the sky seemed to be an infinite abyss leading to nowhere. The clock ticking the time away as he approaches closer to midnight.
In the entire year, he had gained many things but also had lost just the same. Alas he felt lost, not knowing what to do. Uncertainty gripping his heart as he fear of the choices he makes could lead him into regret and despair. He already went through it once, and that was more than enough.
Just then, the clock ticks at midnight. The new year has arrived and right outside his window, colorful light cover the sky. Fireworks blooms like flowers in the sky, showing that even in the darkest night it could still be filled with colours. He smiled at the thought, it's as if he'd found consolation in his heart.
"Last year is just the same as any year. This year is no different. I will find my way, carve up my own path to follow. That's what I'll do. "
Determination welled up within him as he watches the fireworks fill up the sky. No longer is he feeling lost, he'd find a way even if it meant carving up his own path forward.
To everyone that is reading this, happy new year. I hope you all have a great day celebrating the new year.
This is your author, Wan and I wish you all a happy new year.
