True or False

If things do not work out the way you wanted them to be, but yet, somewhere down the line, you look back and realise that things are actually quite alright, it's not because things happen for a reason. It is because you managed to see the better side of life.

Matters of the Living

Decisions in Life. They're never easy, but they need to be made; whether or not the heart and the mind are in sync, preferably so, but not necessary. There are right and wrong decisions, contrary to what many might say. Its only because it sounds better that there are no wrong decisions, to make people feel better. In actual fact, there is such thing as a wrong decision. Time will unveil the experience that will teach, the emotions that will be encountered and the faith that will be tested. Courage is probably the one thing that will determine survival.

Seems Just Like Yesterday

Once in a long while, I look back into my blog. Recollecting memories and thoughts I once had, and how I came about them. It seems like such a long time ago but when triggered, only seems like yesterday. Creativity and linguistic skills have definitely stalled in the midst of life and its transitions. For example, had to think a long hard while to remember what was the last (non-medical/non-fiction) book I read! It was 'Songs of the Humpback Whale'. I actually did enjoy reading that book over spring holidays. The book has been with me for almost 3 years and I finally picked it up and it travelled with me across the oceans back to Malaysia. It was such a refreshing moment. I shall not be too ambitious to say that I would like to read a book every week, nor every month. Perhaps, I shall start with every season. Summer is saying its goodbye soon, so I need to up my focus and grab a good read soon. Oh, and a holiday is always overdue. ;) I love to travel, to see new things, tantalise my palate, absorb culture, and take lots and lots of amazing photos. I believe that where I am at the moment is making me think long and hard about what is going on and to which direction I would like it to go, and of course, where I'd like to be, and whom I would love share it with. The latter has the clearest answers, but as for the rest, its still rapidly evolving! I like to think that I used to know the answers to most questions I have in my mind. Of late, there have been too many confounding factors, and rather important and impossible to ignore. I have become complacent in life, which sounds like a really bad thing. So, as for now, whilst dreaming for the amazing, I shall focus of the dreaded priority.
