2009 CODA - "Once in a Blue Moon"

The song "2009" is about to enter it's CODA. As proof, the twelfth full moon has risen bright last night as if signalling the beginning of this year's ending. CODA according to Merriam-Webster is "a concluding musical section that is formally distinct from the main structure".

So to conclude my 2009, I looked back and saw another year of great loss, opportunities, blessings, disasters and gifts. To keep this long post short, here are some of the highlights: losing our loving "Lola Mama" - we will miss her much, finally being able to grab the opportunity to be musically more active, receiving the continued blessing of having a healthy and happy family, being hit by the worst flood and survived, and being given unexpected gifts right before 2009 closes - to end the year right. The song of life doesn't have to end with 2009 though, soon by the grace of God, I'll be listening to and singing the new melodies of 2010. :)

Weird facts of 2009: We will have a 13th full moon for 2009, which will be lighting our night skies on New Year's Eve - December 31. When there are 2 full moons in a month, the second full moon is called a "Blue Moon". What a way to transition 2009 to 2010 - now you can truly say "Once in a Blue Moon". ^^
