sunday sunday…
…yes another sunday. i’ve typed so many posts about wondering what is the reason for living, and what really is the purpose of us being around. today, it suddenly dawned on me, the reason why i’m alive is because i’m holding on to hopes and dreams and just refusing to give up on them.
ahhh..the end of year. the festive season. the time of the year whereby you look back to the year gone by and what you have achieved. what you have done, the goals you reached and the milestones you passed. and the time you look forward to the new year, making resolutions, hoping for the future, planning for the future, setting targets, and striving to reach them. well..this is what it is to me anyway.
so today i’m sitting here, pondering upon the past year and the one ahead, i realise that i spend 90% of the time planning and hoping my dreams would come true. i guess that’s what’s been keeping me going. i suppose that’s why i always try and give everything my best shot. that’s why i refuse to give up. hmmm…
so..seems a bit early to do this but…what have i achieved this past year? well…firstly, it’s making the move to singapore. really, the whole uk experience traumatised me a little. but i’m glad i made this move. it was good for my career, good for me, and i’ve met wonderful people. yes, most of the time i feel like URGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, but pain builds character eh?
what else? learning. learning about life. learning about work. learning from the past. we never stop learning, do we? i guess i could say that i’m a better man than i was 1 year back. perhaps having found the motivation in my life, i’ve been able to give my absolute best effort in many things i do. and that’s just helped me progress.
hmmm…i think the highlight is perhaps on the 8 october when i had planned something for the day for a couple of months and the day went great. it was an unforgetable day. so good, i’d bring it to the grave with me. i remember praying and hoping that day would go great. and that’s the same i’m doing about next week. here’s to hoping i’d be able to get what i wish for next weekend. come onnnnnnnnnnn december!
