Life Is But A Sojourn

Random notes
I have been wondering a lot about life lately. Too many times I said “Life is unpredictable”, “Live life to the max”, Live without regrets”, blah blah blah… But what is it that I want to do to really live without regrets?
What I want to do is not what my alter ego wants. Then I have regrets, for some decisions I made were for my alter ego.
I’m struggling with the war in me. Do you know how it feels like?
But on a positive note, I’m keeping myself happy and be thankful to everything. I believe showing gratitude is the only way that can lead me to the right path. I’m trying!!!
Boohoo… Time to buck up!!!
There is so much to say… so much to complain… so much to boast… so much to be thankful about.
All these (missing) while, I’m like losing faith and hope, drifting away to nowhere. And sometimes, one really need a push to get inspired / motivated.
I’m just glad that I’m fortunate and blessed in many ways.
WORK
I have never been so busy and stress in my life. My work is super hectic and been staying late in the office just to get things done rightly. Thanks to that irresponsible fucker who left his shits in a big mess before leaving. I have to blame myself so taking things for granted for beliving he will get things done nicely before depart. I’m so goddamn wrong!! I just hope I can salvage as much as possible. And thank god for letting me to have a supportive and understanding boss!! I’ll be in Do-Not-Disturb mode till the D-Days from 20 – 23rd April.
BIRTHDAY
One year older. I’m so sad. . And I’m about to inaugurate into the grand 30 in another 2 years time. *Ops! Secret revealed* Oh gosh!!! What have I been doing for the past 28 years? There’s so many things I’ve yet to fulfill. No time and no youth to waste… I have to buck up now… NOW!!!!
Still, I’m thankful to my mum who cooked the vermicelli with 2 big eggs for me and my husband who spent the day with me at the beaches. Also thanks to my friends who remembered my birthday and sent their birthday wishes to me via SMS and Facebook!!
LIFE
I’ll have to settle my work first. Then quickly decide whether to take up the baking course or the PR course. Then decide whether to travel and where. Then …………………………….
All the very best to myself. Oh yesh… I miss my sister Jamie. Can’t wait to see her after her Nepal trip!!!
‘Busy’ is not the word.
I hate this word ‘busy’. The more I hate, the more busy I become. That’s how the secret works.
Again, I have never-ending projects, tasks and lots of responsibilities. My boss has went for her maternity leave and I have to deal with the upper management for decision and approval for the projects I’m handling now. It is a challenge, really.
Supposed to go back to office to settle some work, then I thought why should I? I’m not going to ruin my weekend in the office again! Work and life must be balance and this is what I have been lacked of. Next week I’ll be having courses from Monday to Thursday. Shiok? I don’t know if this sweet escape will turn out to be a disaster when I return to work?! Eeeeeww… Way NO! I’m keeping my fingers crossed!!!
So it is time to wind down the busy life and I’m looking forward to fly off to my 2nd year anniversary with hubby! We have been married for two years… so fast. Where are we going this time? Hee… (to be continue). :P
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.
