2012

This is the year that I

wrote more than last year,

cooked more and made milktea concoctions,

met extraordinary people from different walks and paradox of life (young, old, families, waiting, busy, forwarding calls, online, offline, invisible, invincible, vulnerable, rich but poor, happy but lonely, cheerful, hopeful, and a lot more) and they all touched my life and made me super laugh/cry in extraordinary ways.

marked september 4 on my journal,

dealt with little and big work related and personal issues,

made a few 'yes and no' challenging decisions,

cried and prayed more than ever,

stumbled and fell countless of times,

stood up by grace and was reminded of the promise (promises actually) countless of times,

went on food renegade expedition,

got confined in the ER for the first time,

wrote Ninang a letter,

held the few days old Gabriel Marcus in my arms (today),

missed/miss nephews/niece in Irvine more than ever,

watched two great films,

embraced the simplest things more than ever,


- - - and the long list goes on and on...

i was led to this...

to a beautiful season i am yet to completely fathom.

there are things that science and even hard-core psychology cannot explain (and mend).

i just dont want to 'lose sight of the reason for the journey

or miss a chance to see a rainbow along the way.'

:-)

i am certain more than ever that God cares more about what our heart contains than anything else this life and ego hold so dear- youth, vanity, wealth, comfort, fame, power, and all the bits and pieces this mundane world can offer. and as my heart welled with tears this past days (weeks actually), i got to reflect on life like never before. i realized more clearly now how amazing (and life changing) it can be to give until it hurts and that happiness is just merely an effect of it. yes, im hurting but i am so holding on to the promise. and as always, this undeserved grace is bringing me back on track once again.
