My Road Trip.

Expanding the circle of 'missed'

Would they miss you if you didn't show up? Would they miss your brand or your writing or your leadership?

If you work at the local fast food joint or the local library and you don't show up for work, do they consider shutting the place down? If you're on the team at the ER and you have a bad day, would someone die?

Everyone is capable of being missed. Most of us would be missed by our family if we secretly moved to Perth in the middle of the night. The question, then, is not whether or not you're capable of being missed. The question is whether you will choose to be missed by a wider circle of people.

It's a risk, of course. You have to extend yourself. You must make promises (and then keep them.) More pressure than it might be worth.

Except when it is.

Peter Hoe, Kuala Lumpur

We went over to Peter Hoe's place last Saturday for lunch. A nice, quiet and quaint hideout up on the 2nd Floor of Lee Rubber Building.

We ordered a carrot and broccoli quiche and a grilled salmon, both had generous servings of salad by the side.

To top it off, we had a white chocolate cheesecake that simply melts in your mouth. Yummmmeh!!!

4 months to 2012

Everyone has dreams.

To be famous, to start their own business, to be happy.

Whatever your fancy, the most crucial is to take identify and take the first step. It takes courage to face the risks that may rise in time.

There are 4 months left in the year. 

What will you do to achieve your dreams? What risk will you take? What would you feel courageous to face?

What will you change about yourself?

"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world."

Nelson Mandela 

Happy Birthday Mama!

To my loving Mama! 

Hope you enjoyed the little surprise which turned out to be something you never dreamed of getting! I wish this year will be filled with many travels, enjoyable food/drinks/moments and most importantly have happiness in everything that you do :) 

Yours, with love,

Your daughter

No one in the world can take the place of your mother. Right or wrong, from her viewpoint you are always right. She may scold you for little things, but never for the big ones.

When It Hits, Everyone Takes a Shot

Be the shot. Gotta be courageous and risk-taking at times.

One step baby. Just one step at a time.

What would He do? His way.

Love. Hope. Faith.

Where Were You?

At moments like this, I just wished you could tap into my heart and breathe a sigh of peace. Yet you wrench my heart up into a stone pretzel.

You keep hurting me like a 5yr old boy, flinging a cat in circles because you wanted to hear it shriek so you could laugh with your friends. The shrieks get louder, yet you never seem to understand why the volume increases.

As tears well up in my eye, I just wished you knew how much this hurt.

I wish nothing to do with you anymore. I'm sorry I didn't make you understand.

Please go away. Stop hurting me. You weren't there when I needed you. What makes you think I need you now? You allowed me to endure pain and I have to thank you for the pain. It's just made my heart tougher.

Please. Just. GO AWAY. Let my stone heart be longing for a suitor with Merlin's sword.

In Due Time

Just needs a few days and weeks to recover completely...
Then again, in reality, it'll take a few months to heal.

A few months of doing nothing! 

YAY! :)

Handle it or it will take over your life.

Fly Away from here
by Aerosmith

Gotta find a way 
Yeah, I can't wait another day 
And nothin' gonna change 
If we stay around here 
Gotta do what it takes 
Cause all in our hands, 
We all make mistakes, yeah 
But it's never too late to start again 
Take another breath 
And say another prayer 

Then fly away from here 
Anywhere 
Yeah, I don't care 
We'll just fly away from here 
Our hopes and dreams are out there somewhere 
Won't let time pass us by 
We'll just fly 

If this life 
Gets any harder now 
It ain't no nevermind 
You got me by your side 
And anytime you want 
Yeah, we can catch a train and find a better place 
Yeah, cause we won't let nothin' or no one keep gettin' us down 
Maybe you and I 
Could pack our bags and hit the sky 

Then fly away from here 
Anywhere 
Yeah, I don't care 
We'll just fly away from here 
Our hopes and dreams are out there somewhere 
Won't let time pass us by 
We'll just fly 

Do you see a bluer sky now 
You can have a better life now 
Open your eyes 
Cause no one here can ever stop us 
They can try but we won't let them 
No way 

Maybe you and I 
Could pack our bags and say goodbye 

Then fly away from here 
Anywhere 
Honey, I don't care 
We'll just fly away from here 
Our hope and dreams are out there somewhere 
Fly away from here 
Yeah, anywhere 
Honey, I don't, I don't, I don't care 

We'll just fly away

Please, leave, me....

To the love of my life for the past 3 years,
I'm sorry, I will have to let you go.

Forgive me for making this choice.

I need you to understand.

I love you too much to have you with me.

I am setting you free.

Thank you for all you have done for me.
