Last Post of the Year 2016, to Start Off 2017!
Okay, if you have been following me for the past few months, you know that I have been doing a lot of tech reviews. I could have put a lot of links to other gadget reviews that I have done this year, but I kind of did that before Christmas. I see no reason to repeat myself, so today, I’m not going to do any, because I want to talk about this year.
I will have to say that 2016 kind of sucked. I don’t know how you felt about the presidential election, but hey, I was disappointed as well. Then there are all the celebrities that we lost like David Bowie, Prince, Carrie Fisher, and the list goes on.
I don’t know if you had a good year, but honestly, it kind of matched everything else what went on. I began this year writing seven posts a day for a decent salary, and by the end of the year, I didn’t have the same job. Not only that, I can’t afford to go to CES, a show that I have been attending since 2008.
I see very little point in complaining about events in my own life. The holiday has taught me that bad things happen, but they don’t happen all the time. There is joy in the midst of the pain, and I feel that removing the pain would somehow diminish the joy.
The issue is that people are looking at 2016 as if it is some kind of menace. As if 2016 decided just to do all sorts of bad things. I suppose it would be great if 2017 arrived and decided to do all kinds of good things. I’m going to assume that it will, and even if it doesn’t, I’m just going to treat it like it will. Who knows, maybe I’m right.
