Atlantis, The Palm Jumeirah, Dubai
Merry Christmas everyone! Today is a working day here in Dubai. Everything is business as usual, construction work is at full swing, the traffic out side is as crazy as ever, we’ve not bought any Christmas gifts for anyone despite the countless Christians here in the office (and we’ve not received any either – must be the economic recession). The only difference today I noticed is that some of the Christians (i.e. the Filipinos) look a little on the drunk side. We’ve decided to keep our Christmas a quiet affair this year. Anu’s still recovering from the unexpected attack of jaundice / hepatitis. Dunno how she got it, she’s something of a cleanliness freak compared to yours truly.
Anyway, here’s to a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everyone. May you triumph over the darn economic mess that Bush left behind; May you ride over the fears created by terrorists and friggin cheats and thugs; May corrupt and inept governments fall to be replaced by good ones, without creating too much of a difficult time; May we continue to have hope, love and peace if difficult times hit us; May our health always be good; May our surroundings always be filled with joy, laughter and harmony; May our prayers be answered; And may God always bless us, protect us and lead us on the right path.
