It's Getting Brighter!

The late nights that we've been having,
The deep and dark conversations that we're keeping,
The trials and tribulations that we're going through,
Is just a phase in life.

I've seen many young warriors who've fought through their bleeding skins,
Yet, they persevere and trudge through, exuberant at the end!
The one thing that I admire about you,
Is the fact, you know you have limits, yet you break them.

Emotions and hours of pain and fatigue sets in,
The fear of losing and wanting to give up creeps up during gloomy days,
Don't be shy my friend, for I too, have such days. 
Just stay true to your feelings. 

Let's pick up where we left off and start our day anew.
Sleep is to resuscitate, and rest is to recover.
Truly respect your guts to face the peer pressure set upon your heart.
Do know, I am with you all the time, each and everyday.

So,

Stick with your guns,
Compare with none,
Look up to the sun,
For life needs fun!

*To my inspiration. Thanks for showing me what we are capable of despite the odds. Love you always!

The Truth

It was a few weeks ago when you asked me "Why am I not going to work today?" - when you don't work that day. It was unusual. It was surprising. You then said you couldn't really see properly at night especially when it's dark with no street lights. Then you kept forgetting where you kept your things. And you asked if that ringtone was mine or yours, when everyone knows that THAT ringtone belongs to you.  Occasionally you'd leave the door unlocked nor closed, and forget that you didn't close it. And you misplace your keys way too often.

I am scared to know the truth but I think I do know what it may turn out to be. Fear, I do. I'm not sure if they notice. I spend the most time with you. I get really upset and angry when I'm sad. I ask why? Why???

These days, I don't ask why. I ask how can I make it easier for you. But I know I get emotional at times and take it upon myself and suck it all in. It would be hard for me to accept the truth. Everyone knows that.

But you know what? I love you and I always will, and I'll do whatever it takes to make you happy. You are already happy with what we have, but I'll make it better. We will make it better.

Promise!

Schwartz Crossfit

Had great & unforgettable training sessions at Schwartzs Crossfit Melbourne. All thanks to the trainers below, and also to Darren who showed me how to rope climb!

I still remember the first time I went there when we had to do Ring Dips. And I just went out all the way and bantai-ed the workout. I was in Group 1. 1 week later, I was up into Group 2.I didn't expect to be placed into Group 2, yet I did my best and it turned out well, to my wishes!

Thanks for all the positive encouragement, gentle guidance and the extra tips to get that one rep! If you guys are coming by Malaysia, please do drop by our box!
