My Best Friend’s Wedding



Yesterday I took a day’s leave to attend my best friend’s ROM ceremony. Congratulations to Jeff and May!!! Finally they tied the knot and I feel so happy for them.
I know May since secondary school days and we have been like sister for more than a decade. She has a heart of gold, treat everybody genuinely and would give a hand to those who need help. I’m glad I have known her as a best friend-cum-sister and hope that our friendship is forever.
Another of our good sister, Xinyi, was unable to attend Jeff & May’s ROM ceremony as her grandfather had passed away on Monday morning. Xinyi always wanted to attend our weddings but ironically, she can’t. She can’t attend my wedding and now she can’t attend May’s. Xinyi is going to get married with GH this December. Oh well… I’m the only one who will be attending their weddings this year.
Ring the Changes
“A person can change his future by merely changing his attitude.” – Oprah Winfrey
I couldn’t agree more.
No longer the gloomy thinker who see no future ahead. Glad that now I know what I want in order to make my life worthwhile during my sojourn on earth.
That’s why Plato said “It is a common saying, and in everybody’s mouth, that life is but a sojourn.“
This site is to document my new soul, life and thoughts, hence… lifeisbutasojourn.wordpress.com is born.
So why should I waste my time, my life, doing nothing or unaccomplished ? Therefore I have changed.
In a better way, I…
* love and cherish my family, friends, all beings
* show gratitudes to all goods and bads
* live in contentment, keep myself happy and positive at all times
* have more tolerance towards stupidity and naifs
* live with visions.
It is like a whole new awakening. This feeling is beyond words but I am sure that I feel relieved and happier. It all begins with “The Secret”. Something which I’m quite hesistated to share in the first place and also it is a secret between my sister and I. Because it is so powerful, I just want to keep to myself! But after a better understanding of this whole secret thing, I came to realise that not everybody can truly understand the essence of it. In fact it is no secret at all, because we used it everyday and everytime without knowing.
Fine… now I leaked that I want to keep this to myself. Ha! :X
Anyway, my change is good. However, I hope it won’t turn out to be plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose.
