Still on weddings, I love watching this over and over again ... I'm a sucker for happy endings. :-)

Congratulations and best wishes Minic and Ria!


It was a LONG day yesterday ...

Woke up at 6 a.m. in order to prepare for my cousin Minic's wedding.

Went to work.

Braved the traffic in order to catch the intimate wedding reception at Emirates Palace. Straight from work. On a Thursday night.

Whew!
 
100% worth it! Congratulations and best wishes to the happy couple!

My blog has changed over the years ... From being a silly girl who doesn't have a clue, I have become braver and wiser. Definitely a woman in progress ...
 
They say that life begins at 40. I beg to disagree. Life begins as soon as you realize that you're here for a purpose - when you start asking yourself, "Okay, so what's the big plan out there?" You may be in your teens. You may be in your early 20s. Heck, you may even be on your deathbed when you realize this. But life begins ... This blog is about searching for the answers after that big question came. It's about forgiving yourself for being far from perfect. It's about laughing at mistakes and not taking life too seriously. It's about patiently waiting for the sun to shine once more after a stormy day. It's about learning from experience. No assumptions. No rules. Just life, the way I choose to live it. 



Last week, I decided to migrate to another blog. I wanted to try a new web design, a new look ... something that's more eye-catching. But, in the middle of preparing for it, I got all senti. So, I have decided to stay here for now. :-)

Musings This Week


Thoughts triggered by the books and tweets I read, songs I heard and life itself ...
 
Isn't it ironic that sometimes, people who have more have less to give and people who have less have more to give?
 
Pain is inevitable. It's part of being human. If you choose to suffer, the pain will stay with you. If you choose not to, it will pass.
 
Would you rather let life bore you with simplicity or excite you with complications?
