3am stories

I've been reading posts on FB - about the 3am stories. It's really interesting on how the writer trying to remind us on the important things we might deem insignificant or missed out noticing, and they are mostly on family relationships. Not only are the stories interesting, but the way the writer wrote, is captivating, too.

I've been wondering, how long has it been, since we all last wrote or read long stories - since our schooling years, maybe. 
With our ever growing technology and fast paced lifestyle, I think most have now grew accustomed to poster style graphics, animations, short videos, podcasts - things that need to have movements and/or sounds to capture our attention. 
How many of us still able to sit still looking at black wordings with white background? You?

Are you prepared?

Are you prepared?
Prepared for your next meal, prepared for your next day plan, prepared for your next month event, prepared for your 5 years roadmap, prepared for the day you'll be gone, etc. Anything that need to be prepared, anything at all - are you ready?
Or you feel that you are the type that always on the go. Ready or not, here I come. 
Or the other way round, just follow the flow, since prepared or not, the ending is always the same.

It is irony when we are prepared for the daily routine, yet unprepared when unexpected event that happened. Is it unexpected, or is it we simply have not thought about it. 
Or, we thought we are fully prepared, but things happened totally out of our preparation. Are we really prepared, or just thought we are prepared.

Anyway, it's always better to be prepared, but same time brace for the unexpected.

goodbye 2025, hello 2026

A belated goodbye to the year 2025 that had passed and belated hello to the new year of 2026.

Where has the time gone? 
Has it slipped by unknowingly,
or has it been well spent? 
No one knows, except you alone.

Missed my 2025 gratitude review. Hmm, actually I think I wrote lesser too, these few years. Lack of time, nay, I doubt so. Just that time had been divided away by more life options and tasks to do.

I had my first road trip being a driver myself. It's not that I don't drive, but I've never drive so far out. It's really an experience out there, the driving, the sceneries and the foods.

And 2025 has been a closure for the kids 2nd chapter in life, which also means a closure of a chapter in mine, too. 
Would like to honour the teachers that have been so encouraging and dedicated to their job.

We are akin to fleeting clouds, passing through your teaching years
But TEACHERS you are the dazzling STARS throughout our pre-school years
We have had endless of fond memories with you and now etched in our hearts
May all the teachers accept our heartfelt thank you, deep from our hearts
