My so-called-LIFE

"It is good to have an end to journey towards, but it is the journey that matters, in the end."

Ernest Hemingway

As we continue to set sail our own life's journey, we question ourselves... where do we go from here?

A lot has happened, so much emotions have been at stake, of course guarded with moments of good and happy spell in between. But what truly is the meaning of Life? Why do we undertake and come up with choices that risk to hurt once self interest? Are we human beings normally do not trust once instinct or are we simply disturbed from the beginning that we end up pursuing a path --- a path that we think and feel constituted to what we call 'ultimate happiness' yet we are well aware of the aftermath which is unhappiness itself, *baffled and confused*.

{I know... too many questions, yet very few answers in between.}

But now i realized and figured out what Life is really about... I think this is about how we bear the complexities of emotions, how we battle the aptitude of wisdom, how far we discern our ability to tolerate the predicament in front of us, how we learn and accept the choices we have made from the start, and most importantly how we value the thought and memories of our own journey --- delighting or distressing it maybe.

As i continue to venture my own so called LIFE (as i turn another year older, *wink*), i just wish and pray i will remain a good person (inside and out). To continue to be humble and be strong with whatever life may throw at me. To try to love myself more and BE me... nothing more, nothing less.

So to all who have been a part of my so-called LIFE...Thank you for the memories, thank you for the time spent, thank you for the beautiful moments shared... these i am sure are well cherished and valued hereafter.

Welcome 2013

As we say goodbye to 2012, we are grateful for all the memories --- quite distasteful experience or an exceptional undertaking it maybe, what matters as we certainly look back, we learn to treasure, and grasp from such happening. Things takes place for a reason, but we bravely acknowledge and recognize such circumstance.

So, as we continue our journey to year 2013, we boldly look forward with enthusiasm, confidently keep up with what's ahead. Changes may arise or may not, but as long as we persevere, grounded at all times, and believe in our own capabilities, i am 100% sure we will beat all the odds whatever this new year awaits.

I hope everyone had a wonderful and blessed New Year!!!


P.S. Allow me to 'Thank You' all for staying and continuing to support and appreciate the little things that i do (i might be inconsistent posting here especially the last quarter of the year, my apology - it kind of went out of my hand that my schedule got so tight and that i have to bring in what we call prioritizing)... Though you all will always remain an inspiration!

Big Love,
Cindy
