Best Wishes
As we approach the end of this, according to the Christian counting, 2009-year, it is time to wish all the readers of Alexander”s Gas & Oil Connections a very fine, happy, relaxing and recovering time over Christmas and the New Year period, and that the 2010-year may be successful and progressive at all levels.
2009 has been a fast year, with many un-expected developments, not all of them good, and the 2010 year may be faster and bear more surprises for all of us.
The world is in a period of very big changes, many of which are of a level far above human, but which will play out at the level of human in many ways, be it personally/spiritually, economically or at the level of the climate. We will be reminded more clearly that the human, in all its might, is just a minute part of something much bigger upon we have no influence.
The planet is turning, and it travels around the sun, which is clearly also in a period of change, and our solar system is travelling as a whole with about 1 million km/h towards the centre of the local galaxy of which we are part, it being just one of many billions of galaxies in this universe. And all are moving and changing all the time, and so will we.
And whilst it may seem sometimes that the world is falling apart, and that ways and means and structures that were relied upon for a long time now clearly are in a state of dissolving, we may be reminded that any change in the world, any, first starts with the person looking at you in the mirror, always, whether it is in the way we think or in the way we do.
It was recently found out that one of the best things against depression is to do something good to someone else. Not for you to feel better, but for the other person to feel better, and warm yourself in the glow that is coming from them.
2010 is said to be the year of great changes, and it might, so brace yourself and reconnect to the core values of your life. It will be those that will constitute your anchors of stability in a world, and society that will be in fast evolution.
Stay strong, stay healthy and remind yourself what it means to be human.
All the best,
Alexander
