Year end

2006 is about to end in a few hours and as I look back, many significant things happened to me mostly at work though. I didn’t have much time to deal with my personal life and I feel so guilty. I wake up for work, go home and sleep. Not much of mingling with friends and love ones. I was always exhausted after work.

I sense that the clock is ticking so loud!

Finally, I’ve resigned from work. What a relief! Many friends say that maybe Bongwan was sent by heaven to test my patience. To make me leave work so I can take care of my personal life. Well they’re right it’s about time.

Opportunities will endlessly come and go. It’s like a rubber ball that will keep on bouncing back on us. If we keep on juggling all the balls we can handle, we’ll be surprised and we are in our 50s and left with a short time to live.

For the people who know me very well, I’m a person who doesn’t want to remorse on things. I want to live my life to the fullest with the people I love the most. Memories are very valuable for me. When I get old and grey, I want to go back on these memoirs and share with my grandchildren. I’m very schmaltzy. I keep a blog and online albums. I want to have something to look back…

Leaving one’s comfort zone is difficult for many. It has always been tough for me but once I decide on it, I really go for it. Take note: Decision must come straight from you. Not to be dictated by anyone.

Quitting work is not easy as it entails a lot of “adjustments”. I’m a believer of “embracing change”. Why should I compromise my happiness for money? We need money of course, to live the way we want and buy the things we want. But if it’s the only thing that makes one hold on to their jobs, nah! If you are satisfied with what you have, life will be easy. I don’t want to work with a heavy heart. I want to be paid by being happy and love the things I’m ask to do.

All these heartaches and painful experiences must be left behind.

Tomorrow is a new year, a new beginning. Stay focus and reach your dreams. Touch people’s life and pay it forward.


Carpe Diem! ☺
