And so one more year
goes by…
Adieu to the year that gave us
the hope in Anna Hazare’s Andolan,
Arvind Kejriwal’s triumphant win in New Delhi elections, timeless moment of
watching the cricketing legend Sachin Tendulkar for one last time, actor Aamir
Khan’s quest to bring social issues in front of TV audiences with Satyamev Jayate, Business friendly
Gujarat chief minister, Narendra Modi became the opposition candidate for next
general elections in India, Anil Kapoor showed his golden touch on TV with his
Indian version of 24 (you guys knew
it was coming!), President Obama’s legacy defining Obamacare came into effect, Dow Jones and S&P 500 touched
record highs (nothing makes a Gujarati feel better than a sky high stock market
J), Main street America witnessed
the upturn in the economy, Edward Snowden’s pursuit of privacy, Peyton Manning
broke the single season touchdown record, President Putin reinvigorated the
cold war era antics by granting asylum to Mr. Snowden, the world stopped to
welcome the newest English royalty George
Alexander Louis, Greece and other EU outliers survived one more year with
Euro, the rise of Tesla & Space X founder - Elon Musk, the release of iphone
5S & 5C, Samsung’s hastily release
of Galaxy Gear Smart watch and a glimpse to the future of logistics with Amazon
Prime Air.
A year that was filled with
promises, a year full of opportunities, a year that achieved the impossible, a
year that gave rise to the new ideas, a year that also witnessed broken pledges,
missed goals, shattered hearts and botched projects.
Simply put, just as in all other
years gone by, 2013 was a year filled with bliss top with sprinkle of woe!!
Happy New Year.
