Well, the end of last year and the beginning of this one were far from stellar. I’m not saying I’ll hope for a better year overall, but I don’t want to fall into heavy pessimism again. If anything, I’ll be rather wary for most of (if not all) the year; cautious of what it might bring. Doesn’t sound healthy, sure; but I’d say it’s better that putting your full faith in optimism or wallowing in pessimism.
