Thank you, God!
And may we have your continuous blessing.

rain
Here I am again, after procrastinating for so long to continue my post.
Well, kind of hesitating on what to write, as the mind and heart is still unclear on the steps to take, even though milestones have been set.
Anyway, what prompt me to continue today is the rain.
It has been so long, since I last run (or rather, walk) in the rain. And it actually felt real good, despite the heavy droplets that hit the face, or the cold wind that blew across the skin.
How often do you get caught in rain nowadays?
Most of the time, either you are stuck in building or sheltered in car. Else, protected by the amazing invention: umbrella!
Of course, most people would rather stay away from rain, as who would like to get drenched and fall sick.
But I guess, once a while, being under the rain is actually quite nice. It kinda helps to wash away some negativity in your thoughts. Talk about mother nature healing method.
We are all caught in a rat race, that sometimes we tend to forget that we need to take ourselves aside, out from it, to heal and recuperate. I doubt we can actually get out from the race.If we can, we most probably will end up being a priest or priestess. So, while we know we will be stuck in the race, why not now and then remind ourselves to take a break. Best if we can define the race ourselves, as everyone should be running a different race, their own race.
So, take a break!
But make it worthwhile, though.

a better you
Have you ever give a thought of wanting to become a better you?
Well, I think I just give it a thought today. A brief one, though. And now I think, I should really put more thoughts on it.
I have first heard of this statement through a drama. Gosh, I must have been watching lots of drama, 'cos most of the things I can recall come from the drama I watched. Thankfully that I only absorb the good things out of them. Can't imagine what would happen if I am not able to differentiate between the good and the bad from the show.
Anyway, this is about the male lead, giving himself one year's time in order to learn more about himself and to become a better person, in order to pursuit the female lead who rejected his earlier proposal. Then off he went travelling with only moderate belongings and monetary.And indeed, this change his perception in life and people, as well as his personality (he's well-known for his bad temper at work and being a perfectionist).
And so I begin to think. Are we so used to our daily lives that we forgot we are only standing at the very same point, when we should be continuously going forward, learning and cultivate a better us? Is it because we are contented in our life or because we simply do not want to venture out of our comfort zone worrying about the unknown. Or is it that we have not met a better person that pull the trigger in us, as we do not have this kind of characteristic in us?
What would you do, if you are given the trigger to become a better you? Would you step out into the unknown, learn and accept the inadequate you? Then takes up the challenge to transform yourself into a better you?

The Four Stages on Life
Came across an article in FB that a friend of mine shared out on - "The Four Stages on Life" by Mark Manson. Simply put, it summarizes our life in four different stages which transcend from one stage to another, while changing our life priorities.
Stage One - Mimicry
Stage Two - Self-discovery
Stage Three - Commitment
Stage Four - Legacy
To read in more detail, you may want to take a peek at the link - https://markmanson.net/four-stages-of-life
While reading it, do think back of which stage you are at now. Life ain't long to be stuck in one stage for too long. It is worthwhile to venture out to other stages and see what really life means.
Sometimes it is hard to judge something as good or bad. Sounds like a weird statement? "Good thing is good, while bad thing is bad", you might say, "what is so hard to differentiate it?"
But do you realized that the thing that you say is good might means bad to the other person. So, what is good and what is bad?
That seems a bit further off from this topic, but while thinking of going through the stages in life, do think also about the value of life, and the value of good and bad.

half glass of water
I guess many would have heard before the half glass full or empty citation, which has become one of the favourite quotes to differentiate your personality.
But have you seen the latest video that also uses a half glass of water as the metaphor? This is really an interesting one!
[Quote]
A psychologist paced around a room as she spoke about managing stress to an audience. She raised a glass of water. Everyone expected she would ask the classic question: "Is the glass half empty or half full?"
But instead, she smiled. "How heavy is this glass of water?" she asked. The audience's guesses ranged between 100 and 500 grams.
She replied, "The actual weight of this glass has no real significance. What does matter is how long I hold the glass. If I hold it for a minute, it doesn't feel so heavy. If I hold it for an hour, I'll eventually start cramping up in my arm. If I hold it for a whole day, my arm would probably numb up and feel paralyzed. In each case, the glass' weight doesn't change - but the longer I hold, the heavier it gets."
She continues: "Stress and anxiety are like a glass of water. If we stress about things for a short while, nothing happens. If we think about them a little longer, it starts to hurt. If we think about them all day, we will feel paralyzed - unable to do anything."
It's important to remember to let go of whatever stresses you.
So ... every evening, as early as possible, put away the stress you may have carried during the day. Don't carry things throughout the evening and into the night.
Remember to put down your glass of water.
[Unquote]
After reading through the video, it indeed remind me again that sometimes we cannot control on the stresses that come bouncing to us, but we can control when to roll it away.
If we have the time brooding about something we cannot control, then why not use the same time to focus on something that we can control on? (Hhmm, seems like someone had said that to me, too)
So, by end of everyday, remember to down your glass of water!

love-hate
It might sounds ridiculous, but I always had this thought that I am in a love-hate relationship. Lots of reasons to love him, and lots of reasons to hate him.
Hate him ordering me around. Hate him for picking on me. Hate him for making me to follow his way.
Yet, love him for giving in to me. Love him for being around. Love him for loving me.
If we ever have a few little ones of your version, hope that we can build up their characters way better than us. May they have fulfilling lives and learn what life means.

행복하니? Are you happy?
Haeng-bo-gha-ni? Are you happy?
A simple question, which should only have a simple answer. But some might just give a noncommittal answer, as they are also unsure of themselves. Of course, there are also lots whom are contented with their blessed lives. And not to leave out a minority who are adamant that they are not happy at all.
Well, for me, I am learning to be happy. Why? Because I should.

dream vs reality ... life
Reaching home after a tired day at work, parking the car while listening to the soothing music.
Open the house door, and switch on the music. Soothing music filling the house, while you ponder over what to have for dinner. Then, decided to take a warm shower instead. After shower, had a quick check in the kitchen, and pick on a quick simple meal to fill the stomach.
Nice music, warm food, relaxing mood.
Whammp! Back to reality.
Back from work late at night. Thought can make it home early today, but still need to work late. Worst is that work have yet complete before leaving office. Feeling sluggish and just wanted to have a good rest at home. But your whole mind is started to worry about what will happen tomorrow at work, even though the stomach is rumbling away. And your body just simply doesn't want to move an inch.
Tired mind, loads of work, defeated spirit.
Dream life vs Reality life. And who's having the higher score?
I wondered how many of us are living the dream life and how many in reality life. And those living in dream life, how do you make it happen. While those in reality life, how long can you survive?

keep that faith going on...
When we were young, we were thinking how great it is to just grow up.
Being a kid at home, thinking how great it is to go to school, wearing smart uniforms.
Being primary schooler, thinking how great it is to get to secondary school, to join school activities and mingle with other schools' student.
Being secondary schooler, thinking how great it is to join university, to have odd study hours and long breaks.
Being varsity student, thinking how great it is to join workforce, to escape from lectures and exam.
Being in the workforce, thinking how great it is to create our own family, to enjoy the care of our spouse and kids livening the life.
Being in a family, thinking how great to have the kids just grow up, to escape the monotonous kids' student life and worrying about them.
Then when we have finally grow old, we wondered where our life have been.
Some may have been wise enough to enjoy the process of their life and hence either planned ahead or just learn to appreciate things happening to them.
Some may have been struggling throughout their life, not knowing what will happen next, and just continue to stumble on.
Were we being taught wisely enough?
Were we just follower or leader of our own life?
Had we think thoroughly what we want in our life?
Had we act on what we thought we want?
Don't just sit and whine.
Don't just envy and weep.
We all have our own path to walk, and though we may not see the whole path set out for us, yet, but that doesn't mean we should just stop and wait for the next sign to appear. We could have just continue to walk and keep a lookout for the next sign. Keep on walking and keep that faith going on.

Happy Mother's Day
Happy Mother's Day to all Moms!!!
It's a day to be reminded of our mothers, whether it's good memories or bad memories, mums are still mums. Nothing can change that.
We gotta admit that not all mums are great and good, but overall, we just want to appreciate the good things that they do or did, be it as benevolent as sacrificing her life for her child, or as simple as giving a praise to her child.
Well, this also makes me wonder, if we have been thinking what is our calling in life?
Being a mum, I guess it's quite clear - which is her family and children. Or so I think.
What's yours truly?

Mayday
We are now heading into the fifth month of the year.
Some may have been counting down the days, while some may be quite surprised to see how time slips away.
For me, it is actually both. Which means I am literary counting my days and find it unbelievable that where has the time gone to.
What have we been doing throughout the past four months? What special and meaningful things have you done? Which milestone have you reached? What have you accomplished so far?
Reflecting back my four months, there are many little things that I have done. But to be truly meaningful and be part of my milestone, that I still need to seriously think on it.
We all still have another two months to go before we mark the end of mid year 2016. Half gone and half to go.

throwback
The word "throwback" is really frequently used by the netizens nowadays.
When I first see this word, I do not even need to lookup what it means, as a picture is worth a thousand words. And now, after checking online on its definition, only realized that this word actually do exists much earlier before the WWW era.
Well, well, well. I am not trying to discuss on the origin of the word, neither am I trying to dispute its existence. I simply just to throwback 5 years back of today.
It was a lovely day, and a quite busy one, in fact. But luckily that day went by quite smoothly as per plan.
It was a special day, five years back, and will continue to be.
So, happy anniversary for today!
Appreciate today and live for the day!
Appreciate today and live for the day!

don't be afraid, just move forward
Sometimes, you will feel afraid of taking another step forward, as you feel uncertain and insecure. So, you rather just continue to linger on in the same comfort zone, hoping that, the feeling will go away as time passed, or that you will gather enough courage to push yourself just a little bit further.
But sooner or later, you will realized that the uncertainty still stay firm and the courage you have been waiting for, just never come.
What are you afraid of?
What is holding you back?
Do you know that time just keep moving forward, and never wait for anyone or anything?
Never hesitate to do anything, if it is the right thing to do or to try, as long as you remember, you are the one living your life and will be responsible for it, until the very end.
Time does not stop, so neither should you.
Time does not wait, so neither should you.
Time is not afraid, so neither should you.
Strive for your best, move forward and don't be afraid.
Living your life
What does it mean to live your life?
We are always hearing people saying to live your life to the fullest. But what does it exactly means? How do we actually live to its fullest? And problem is, why are we not doing so? What is stopping us from doing it?
I think the answer is Me, Myself.
Every time it is our ownself that is stopping us from living life to the fullest and from not appreciating our own life.If you realize, you can see that there are lots of media or article that shares on this topic, trying to remind us to live our life. There are some telling us to live everyday like it is the last day of your life.
In short, live for the day.

Kick start of 2016
We are now 10 days into 2016.
So, how is everyone progressing into this new year? Starting to warm up or already in high gear mode moving towards your goals?
For me, things are moving at its usual speed, not too fast, albeit a bit slow, but it is moving. Maybe age is catching up, not that into the "fast and furious" mode anymore (opps, have I ever been?).
But so far, one of the projects of the year is progressing well. The spring cleaning project which had already kick start last month, is on good track. Maybe due to good project management (LOL).
My K-drama project had officially started few days ago. Had enjoyed a good short rom-com, which just have two episodes! Amazingly good drama, short and straight to the point. You will be amazed by it - Splash splash love (or also known as splish splash love). Quote from dramabeans recap - "The king asks what’s so bad about being a little useless—a person remains a person, and there’s no need to run away because you fear the future."
Then next up-coming project might be the year long of project 365. However, I plan to have slight revision on how it should works. Still trying to figure out the framework of it. Hope it will be a successful one.
Well, that is all for now. May we all be moving on the right track, on the right direction!

happy new year... 2016
So fast it is beginning of another new year.
Most of us must had been busy celebrating end of the year and beginning to make new resolutions and new hopes for this year.
My new year eve had been kind of hurricane-like. Why? Because everything was a rush at work. Never had I been at work like this before (nor I heard of) on a new year eve, where we even need to work till midnight, until the company system shut down. But the surprising part (and also the painful part) is that not everyone on the team does the same, talking about team work. It is really an eye-opener. And at the same time, it got me into trouble, because of the need to work so late, thus breaking my very first rule of this new job - work-life balance.
On my first day of new year, heard something interesting on the radio talk - on the wishes of the year 2016. The deejay mentioned something I found quite true. She said that she had stop wishing others to keep on fighting, because there are things that are out of our control and so, it is best to do it with peace of heart. Sounds profound? Sometimes, instead of trying to control the uncontrollable, why not let it go with the flow. But, ain't the main point is to know what is controllable, and what is not.
Well, what are my new year resolutions? To go with the flow!
Details still need to think carefully.
What are yours?
