What's up with me

Saturday, October 11, 2008

I know it's been a very long time since I really talk about my life here on this blog. I've neglected it and even monetized it a bit with some paid posts here and there. A friend or maybe many more have realised this.

I know I've been very quiet on this blog. The truth is, I've got many other new blogs out there since last year that talk about more specific topics, but they aren't as personal as this one here where I lay my life out for all to read (if they care to drop by and read the mundane stuff!). Sometimes it's not easy to talk about life anymore. But I do find that when I was able to let it out here, I usually found peace to be able to let it out. I don't care who reads it, or not read it, it's just my own space for my own thoughts. Though I've neglected this space for so long, there are times that I miss it, like today.

So what has been up with me? Lots. Nowadays I find my true happiness in the little boy that calls me mummy. He lights up my darkest moments and never fails to put a smile on my face whenever I couldn't bear to smile. I would give up anything and everything for him. This is a really amazing feeling and experience. People have told me before, about a mother's unconditional and deep love for their children. But I've never been able to imagine the depth of it until now. And I love it. I would never give this up for anything in the world.

Work wise, it has been a good 2 year running at my present company. But lately things have gone a bit awry for me. I don't quite enjoy what I do anymore since my change of portfolio. It drives me crazy sometimes thinking of what lies ahead. But thankfully, in my hour of need, I suddenly feel God's magic touch as he arranged for many opportunities my way in the last couple of days when it has been toughest on me. Now that I am presented with opportunities, I only hope that I make good of them.

Recently, a friend insisted that I read a book called Who Moved My Cheese. She read it and thought it helped her in changing her mindset and she thought I should read it too. This book has been in the market for a long time and I've heard of it many times but I never bothered to read it. But her insistence made me read it and I'm glad she made me do it. I actually felt better and whenever I felt down, I would try to switch my mindset and see the silver lining. And I did.

As the week comes to a close, I feel very much at peace today. I look forward to brighter days ahead. All of a sudden, I feel adventurous too. I want to experience more in life and do things differently. I don't know where to start but I know I'll figure it out if I really want to do it. I look forward to a change in life should there be one to come about.
