I will be sharing here some random photos from my gallery because it somehow reminds me about the life that can be random sometimes. Why is it random? Merely because life will sometimes throw you random challenges, random happiness, random lessons, and random people that will pass by. You might be able to connect to this or learn something from it.
Time is running wild, and I know I am not alone in feeling this way as we enter the month of December. I know some of you here are overwhelmed by how quick time is passing by even though it seems like January was just yesterday. I honestly had a moment of reflection with this year’s episodes, and it was actually a rocky road indeed. But this is the perfect moment to reflect, embrace the season with gratitude, and wrap up the year with joy and a little extra warmth.
2024 has been a roller-coaster ride for me. Deep dives and rising highs greeted newcomers and bid farewell to some. In simple terms, I believe I would describe this period as one of personal transformation. I even lost someone I really cared about and loved. I'm more rational now. I always went the extra mile for my loved ones. This is how I operate. But one thing I'm sure of is that now I don't need any validation from anyone who doesn't know how to respect and talk about my shortcomings. I have no grudges against anyone. I'd rather remove myself before I allow anger to consume me. My sister’s death two months ago brings a big impact to me, leaving me with a question on how she ended up taking her own life. My family even receives a lot of negative words and unsolicited opinions from other people. At first it broke me inside. I felt so pathetic trying to protect my family, but later on I realized I cannot please everyone, and my family doesn’t owe them an explanation.
But I don’t want my year to be consumed by hatred and sorrow. Here I am trying to move forward and embrace everything that is left for me. While I am writing this blog, every memory I had this year flashes back. I would say I am still blessed this year because I had a lot of happy memories with my husband and my family, and it matters the most.
Right now, I have no regrets about my family because I have done everything in my ability to provide them with both financial and emotional assistance. "This is where my time goes," was all I could say. Getting here has taken a long time. Sleepless nights, innumerable tears, and juggling a variety of feelings, including perplexity, rage, disappointment, and intense hurt. Intense prayer, self-preservation, self-reflection, and asking others far wiser than me for advice.
Allow me to take this time to sincerely thank God for his kindness towards me and the universe's prepared path for me. I am thankful for a lot of things, but I am just sharing them with myself.
Moving forward,
It is the season of the year! A season to be jolly and embrace the gift of life. A season of sharing and forgiving. A season to move forward. A season to start a new life. And a season to heal. I really hope everyone of us here will eventually receive all the goodness in life. May we all get everything what we wish for as long as it is according to His plan. And I am looking forward to the fact that we could write some good things next year about “where did the time go?”.
Let’s make use of our time for worthy things. We should all recognize our own being to keep motivated. After all, we all share the same goals in life which is to be achieve genuine happiness.
It is not always easy but that’s life, be strong because there are better days ahead. No matter what experience I experience, no matter how hard life maybe.. I promise myself now to continue to run with it. And if I’m too tired to run, I’ll continue to walk with it. I will continue to climb instead of choosing to fall and leaving everything. – Life will go on and embrace it.
We started it with so many challenges but we are ending it with a lot of reasons to celebrate and be thankful for! This is #xoloveshoney and I appreciate you taking the time to read my blog, see you on my next blog!
