Mid Autumn festival

And so it is… time to start the ball rolling. I am happy with how things have turned out. Could have been better but then sometimes, you can’t have the best of everything. I tried. At least I tried. I gave it all and that is all it matters. I believe it will be exciting times in the coming months.

2009 has been a year of self discovery, reflections and improvements.  I have gone through several periods of ups and downs, obstacles and challenges. Facing them head on and over-coming them. It was not an easy ride. It was tough at times and depressing too but I am proud of myself that I made it though. It was one big lesson of life and I am glad I took it. I have learnt alot about myself. I read books, I studied, I took exams, I passed, I failed, I saw my friend’s mom passed away and the pain he went through made me realised the fragility of life. It made me think hard about my own life, my relationships with my loved ones, colleagues and friends and how sometimes, I am so caught up with ‘trival’ matters such as money, deadlines, climbing corporate ladders, stupid train systems, idiots on the street, that I lose sight of the bigger picture and depriving myself the true meaning of living.

I want to experience life to the fullest. To make the best out of it. Of course, life is never a bed of roses. It never was, never is and never will be. We just have to face them as they come. It would be painful, it would cause distress and misery but we should not let that affect our well-being, our relationships and how we view life itself.

I am contented with my life and I am lucky to have the most gorgeous woman in my life and my family, despite their flaws, is always there for me no matter what. Life is as such, you control the destiny and paint the world a picture through your eyes.
