Goodbye 2012 and welcome 2013!

This is the moment where I feel time really flies. I felt that I've missed so much, too much of things in 2012, and without realizing it, it's coming to an end and 2013 is just less than 24 hours later.

I had a rough year I guess, despite the saying that 2012 is good for piggies. Well, it might be good as in it is a  blessing and lesson learnt year. After a continuous of 8 years in relationships, I am back in the market all alone again. I thought I will get married this year but well, things changed faster than what we have planned for. However, that could be a blessing for me after all. Nevertheless, I want to thank Ocean for taking care of me and giving me everything in our 4 years of relationship. I appreciated it a lot.

I have known many of amazing people in my life in 2012 as well. The importance of having quality friends around me, realizing I have many great friends who supported me through my rough patch. I really appreciate their existence in my life, sharing my tears and laughter. They have opened my mind and made me a more generous person.

I have read a lot this year as well, not my text books but many of motivational and self help range. Regina Brett brought me closer to God. Shelley taught me how to pray to God. Elin made me realize how God's approaches for me. Zynn taught me to optimize the usage of Law of Attraction. Menh Chooi kept checking up on me and I realized I can be a more caring person. I also learnt that what doesn't kill you, makes you a stronger person, very true indeed. When you have reach the bottom, you will always bounce back and you will never stay at the bottom. These are invaluable knowledge. Thank God for everything.

Looking back, I have not been an active participant in previous 8 years compared to this year. I enjoyed my time with my colleagues, ex colleagues, friends, diving buddies and my lifeguard friends a lot this year despite a rough beginning. When I started to let go of whatever is holding me back, I found my wholesome smile, my happy go lucky self back again. Quoting from a page "如果你找到一个能够笑得深刻的人,你一定会发现他也曾经哭得非常深刻" That's very true.

Life has never been greater!

I welcome 2013 with open heart! :D

Quote from Rabbi Ben Ezra by Robert Browning


Grow old along with me!
The best is yet to be,
The last of life, for which the first was made:
Our times are in His hand
Who saith "A whole I planned,
Youth shows but half; trust God: see all, nor be afraid!''

Keep it sweet

Pleasant words are like a honeycomb, sweetness to the soul and health to the bones - Proverbs 16:24

一切都会过去的

看到杨丞琳-少年维特的烦恼的MV发现原来我也曾经那样歇斯底里的呐喊过。有一点难以置信。但是那时事实。还好现在的我已经找回自我。知道自己要什么,可能还没肯定的找到要走的方向。但是生活就是一场adventure,需要慢慢发觉,寻觅。果然,一切都会随着时间而淡化,过去。感谢神对我生命的安排,虽然是走了崎岖的路,但是让我发现了很多道理,经验了很多事情。回头看,一切都是blessings。:)

a great post by Suanie!

I must share Suanie's post here. The path to look for our ancestry back in Fuzhou, China :D

How we unexpectedly found our relatives in China

I was rather skeptical of those relatives claiming they were the real relatives until I saw the pictures of our great grandparents. That gave me enough goosebumps! I'm so happy to read this post!

2012 world's end

Do you believe in 2012 world's end?
2012 has made me a better person with sorts of life lessons. Thank God for that. I appreciate it very much.
Stepping in December, I find myself happy again, smiles are back, my heart is open.
