A Prosperous CNY To All

My year is almost up, Tiger year that is. You can say that it has been a tumultuous one with its Yang Metal Year Element, bursting conflicts and creating headlines especially with the currency wars and the global economy still recovering in a fragile but gradual pace.

Year of the Golden Rabbit, which begins on February 3, 2011 (technically 4th following the lunar calender) and ends on January 22, 2012. In accordance to Chinese tradition, the rabbit year signifies rest and respite; a year to calm your nerves and catch some breath. Things should be done in a more laid-back, easygoing and relaxed manner.

For those looking for fabulous CNY gifts here are some thoughts: money plant, pineapple or pineapple tarts or peach blossoms for loved ones. Hope your business/wealth will prosper, health in good shape and happiness will flourish like never before!! Wishing you an early Happy Chinese New Year, Xin Nian Kuai Le and Gung Hay Fat Choy.
