Just a simple dinner with people who matter.

A few days ago, I’ve reached a point in my life where I’m no longer a child or a youth as dictated by society’s standards. It was my first step into adulthood, a period of life that’s full of possibilities and excitement, but also one that’s plagued with responsibilities and decisions.

Stop and Smell the Roses

Have we been neglecting the subtle beauties of life?

What is the point of crying? There is so much of life to celebrate and enjoy, so many people to love. No time to get sad and depressed. So go catch up with that friend whom you’ve been thinking of but never got down to calling. Go buy that dress you’ve been eyeing, put it on and feel good about yourself. Take that holiday with your family that you’ve been dreaming about. Stop and smell the roses. Go celebrate life, and live it well.

Discomfort

Sometimes, we've no choice but to walk barefoot on this long and arduous road.

Today, I attended the first session of a three-day training programme that aims to prepare me well for my teaching internship which will begin next week.
