New Year
Living in Cambodia one faces several dilemmas. My current one, with the New Year upon
us our thoughts center on takes us in different venues and cultural
phenomena. January multiple New
Years celebrates the international New Year. February the Chinese take the stage with their New
Year. Then comes March with a very
small segment of the society celebrating the vernal equinox as New Year as
takes place in Iran and other parts of the world. The biggest New Year event comes in April with Khmer New
Year. Since 4 New Years are
celebrated in one 12-month period, I wonder does time here in Cambodia speed by
4 times faster. Or perhaps since
four month of the year are new year celebrations maybe time goes by at 1/3 the
pace of other countries. Then one
has more opportunity to create new years resolutions and subsequently fracture
the resolve. So now I look to
resolve my dilemma from Cambodia by wishing you a Happy Happy Happy Happy New
New New New Year Year Year Year.
