Destiny

“The future is not a result of choices among alternative paths offered by the present, but a place that is created--created first in the mind and will, created next in activity. The future is not some place we are going to, but one we are creating. The paths are not to be found, but made, and the activity of making them, changes both the maker and the destination. “

- John Schaar

Setbacks

“The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled. For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort, that we are likely to step out of our ruts and start searching for different ways or truer answers.”

-M Scott Peck

Decisions

"Every decision you make-every decision-is not a decision about what to do. It's a decision about Who You Are. When you see this, when you understand it, everything changes. You begin to see life in a new way. All events, occurrences, and situations turn into opportunities to do what you came here to do."

-Neale Donald Walsch

Life's Purpose

"The purpose of life, after all, is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experiences."

-Eleanor Roosevelt

Daily Blahs

I’m at the stage where I want to improve myself- physically, mentally and spiritually. Perhaps, this was partly brought about the recent events in my life which have brought me here and my renewed faith in God.

There's still a lot of anger inside me but I think that I'm doing a good job of not letting it consume me. After all...

“Anger is only one letter short of danger.”

Change

“I cannot say whether things will get better if we change; what I can say is they must change if they are to get better.”

---> my sentiments exactly!

I love Rum

I've been eating all the rum cakes that my sister made for the Christmas holidays... and I still want more. I need to bake 2 more loaves as payment for eating what she made. Haha guess she doesn't know me well (tsk tks I'm hurt, we spent 23 years together...well, almost), I need a LOT of practice to improve my baking skills!

Ozzy

Last Friday, our Papillon arrived from Australia. He's very energetic and clever. Why, while I was sleeping, he put the sock that we used to play fetch beside me... I didn't wake up but it's just so cute. Sorry pal, sleep comes first.

Queen of Klutz

This is so sad but I have to admit it... I am the clumsiest person whom I know. Just recently, I managed to trip over my own feet while climbing the stairs. The result, another injury to my bad knee. Both my right and left knee are even more purple than my mom's eyeshadow! Perhaps I should get an award for this!

Change

All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life before we can enter another.

What it's like to lose a loved one...

… like the world slowly being robbed off its color... the reds, the blues, the violets, the greens, the yellows and the oranges slowly fading into gray

… like the chocolates and my favorite food losing its flavor… bland and tasteless slowly seeping in

… like being in a parallel universe where you’re neither here nor there… having a difficult time deciphering if this is real

But it gets better….

… the colors slowly creep back

… the enjoyment you once found when indulging your favorite food comes back

and everything becomes so real that you wonder why you even thought otherwise.

Life is beautiful. And it’s my choice to make it stay that way.
