2012: Time in retrospect

At the end of the day,
we hardly remember that how much we longed for the sunrise ..
And so are the year end,
when we hardly remember that how much we celebrated it's coming,
with peers and cheers !!

So is the life ....
So is the time ....

 It passes on ....
And we passes by ....

Nouns hardly matter,
as this belongs to us all,
or we belong to this all,
irrespective of people and places 
shown in the picture....

****
Time passes like the winter wind.
It is felt for the moment - intensely
And like the wind, fades away into the darkness of the past.

IT CAN NEVER BE RECAPTURED, NEVER RETURNED.
It is a single coming and going -

Every moment comes but once, lingers a while, and is gone.
More precious than gold, more common than stones,
It is an element one never has enough of.

Following are some pictures,
showing us celebrating the coming of 2012 
all across the world,
with much fanfare....
