When it comes to new year celebrations, so many times people have asked me this particular question. Do I think it is actually necessary? Well I will say it all point down to individual preferences and the way each of us see the meaning of it. For some people they actually value it so much as part of something significant in their life and for some people, they just see it as an ordinary day.

Let me start from my own perspective actually. I will say I see the new year celebrations from three perspectives which are golden and which makes the new year celebrations significant for me.

• Symbol of Renewal: The first is I see it as a perfect symbol of renewal. What do I really mean by that? I see every celebration of the new year to renew my mind and kickstart a fresh journey not minding the previous journey or what might have happened. Not only that, I see it as a point for me to reflect on my past and what I have done either right or wrong in the last year and correct it.

• Cultural Tradition: The second one is I see the new year celebrations as one of my cultural traditions which I have be observing since I was born. Of course my family also observes it since I am little and I have always noticed that it is a perfect avenue for us to come together again as family.

• Social Connection: Then lastly, I will say it is a medium for me to celebrate with my families, love ones and even friends and during those celebrations, it always goes a long way to strengthen the bond and make sure that memories are created. It is a time to reflect and also be grateful.

Yes of course I have thought about this question before and I am really planning ahead some amazing plans for the new year celebrations. According to my plans, I actually break it down to Morning season, Afternoon Session and the Evening Session since it will just be a day. Let me explain below.

• Morning Session: For the morning session, I will make sure that I have quality time for reflection. During the reflection period, I will think through how the last year was, some of my achievements, what I did right, what I did wrong and what I strongly believe I will need to improve on and many more. It is a time to pick the lesson I have learnt all through the last year. Not only that, I will make sure that during the morning session, I create time to write down the goals that I want to achieve for the new year and make sure I break it down to structure which will help me achieve those goals.

• Afternoon Session: For the afternoon session which is the main session, I will make sure that I pamper myself oo. It is not easy me facing what I passed through last year and before embarking in any challenges for the new year, let me pamper myself first. I will make sure that I treat myself out, I have quality session to either watch movies or just explore around. Not only that, I will be using that opportunity to prepare for the night where I will be selecting down the outfit or any other decorations I will be using for the new year celebration.

• Evening Session : Then down to the last session which is the main session. I will make sure I prepare my dinner and during that process, I will be inviting my love ones, friends and families. Then I will make sure there is gratitude toast in the gathering to express my utmost gratitude for people around me.

These are some of the basic plans I only have for my new year celebration ahead.

Well I will say my last new year celebration is not really something huge but I actually enjoyed it. It was a time I was able to reflect and look back on what I did right and wrong.

Not only that, my family members, friends also come along which I create quality time for them to make sure that we bond together and make sure that I was able to create some special memories with my friends and love ones.

Trust me, it was a time we sit down together as family and reflect on how the journey have been, how we can be better and make sure that next year is worth taking the step. I actually enjoyed it.
