Leaving Your Baggage Behind

In life, we encounter people who aren't exactly nice like as though people owe then a living. We must do things or say things that please them. It's all about trying to make them happy and yet, in the end what we get is a sense of not being appreciated for all the things we have done for them because they make it seem like we're meant to do these things for them.

While I have long accepted the fact that I'm living among such people, it does affect me especially when I'm made to feel like I'm being taken for granted. But standing through my motto, life goes on. It doesn't stop because of one person and it doesn't stop because of the miserable situation that I am in. It goes on, no matter what. I know that I can't make everyone happy and I know too that in life, we face challenges but it will get better just as long as we have faith, work hard to make things better and continue to make self improvements while being grounded in life. 

Everyone is different. Some choose to be nasty and some choose to simply think about themselves only. I can't dictate to them what they should and shouldn't do. We're all adults. We have responsibilities. As a concerned friend or citizen, we try our best to reach out but if they choose to wallow in their self pity or continue to be nasty or rude, let them be. Let's not make it like it's our fault and let them ruin our day.

We  only have one life to live. Make it a good one and pray that we have lesser of such encounters that pull us down. Like someone commented on the facebook, leave your baggage at the lost and found and simply walk away.

Birthday Gathering & House Hunting

Last week, I celebrated a friend of mine's belated birthday together with another friend at her condo. Sadly, this would be the last time we would hold the celebration at her place because she has finally managed to sell off her condo unit after one year of looking for a buyer. Mostly we used the swimming pool facilities although the two of us didn't swim at all but just chill under the shade. We brought home cooked food and I really appreciated my friend for doing this for us, thinking about how the young son of a friend of us would love the swimming pool for kids. She is so selfless and kind to her friends and I'm truly blessed to have her in my life.  While one was selling off the house, the other friend was on the verge of getting a dream house for herself and her young son. In life, we have many priorities and things to look forward to. Each of our dreams and aspirations are different from one another, like for me, getting a house is not a priority at the moment.  ...

A Reminder to the Living

Recently, we lost our former President when he passed away at the age of 92. He was known to have his heart for the people although those who worked closely with him couldn't actually picture him as that for he was a taskmaster when it came to work. He did his own narratives and do the best that he could as he knew where he came from and wanted to make good out of his life.  He showed that the circumstances that we are in can't stop us from going far in life. We should continue to focus on our actions, has strong dedication and when things get difficult, look at the bigger picture and understand why we are here. Ultimately, we should all be working towards the purpose we have in mind which makes things easier to cope. Thank you for helping the Singaporeans especially those who needed help most. You would always be the people's President. On the other spectrum, a young child had also lost his life. A few of my colleagues witnessed the events which unfolded in front of...
