And my message to her ...

Hey! sweetheart, it's about you again in my blog :) ... and I hope you will get the time to read this. Just wanna tell you that it's so amazing to see that you're almost there at your goal which you started with baby steps. The path you're on now is that of the larger journey. So keep going! Use all your energies and skills positively. You are just close to the "moon" now after all the hard and tiring climb. Nevertheless, a pat on your back, a BIG hug and mega bolts of love dearie, for reaching this level. I consider this achievement itself as an overwhelming sense of personal fulfillment.  I know how excited you are and likewise I am too...fueled with excitement! :) Come what may, my love, give your best shot hereafter and all you need to do is to stay grateful, stay focused, stay true, stay humble, stay in harmony, have faith, have fun, enjoy the journey and live the moments to the fullest! Continue creating the "big picture" and everything will sync in well! 

And to recap, here's a facebook status that you had written not too long ago ...

"We often times hear great inspirational stories of how a small town person turns to become world renowned and even a household name. Say Oprah, Obama, Beyonce.. the list just goes on and on. Everyone is given the privilege of dreaming but only a few have the drive to make their dreams come true. I would like to be an inspiring story of how a girl achieved everything she ever dreamed of. It is possible. I believe."


Yeah, it IS possible, love! So, go and make it real...you're pretty much there...

"You have scintillating gems inside of you. Close your eyes and perceive your own riches."

Moving Office - The New Unknown!

My New Office - my room!

Not sure if I am excited about the office move but I am pretty sure I am going to miss the old familiar as I move to the new unknown. The weeks that flew by were by far one of the most exhausted ones I ever came across in my working life. My current office where I've worked for over a decade is not an easy one where move is concerned. Can you imagine moving an office which has been there for over a decade? All those accumulation of whatever...Lol! and not forgetting the trash too! We're almost there, with the packing still ongoing...

Well, in about 2 weeks it will be goodbye... maybe a tearful one for the few of us! So many memories and experiences!

Yes, that's my room labelled Room 7 Danem

Hmm, soon I will be walking along...a new path, new faces, new environment and with each move, a new chapter in life...everything new...and I hope to find more contentment and peace in this new surroundings...my new office, the new unknown!

Till tomorrow then...goodnight ;)

Your Loved One May Be Gone BUT Never Forgotten

It's not a nice evening for me. Someone whom I've never met, someone whom I've heard so much of, someone whom I felt like I've known all my life...and that someone has passed on. I know it's an even tougher painful day for the family and close ones. There may be no words to express at a time of such sorrow. I hope God will make the pain bearable at least for everyone who loved/loves this wonderful soul who has now gone "home".

As I sit and feel for the loss, I am also recollecting all those stories about this kind soul and I feel privileged to have at least "known" and connected from those stories, all of which were so well narrated of the life of a cherished soul. 

To the family, my heartfelt and deepest condolences and my prayers too during this painful time ...your loved one may be gone but never forgotten. May he RIP.

Hazy Immune System

It was one of the worst feeling ever... I had, 2 nights ago. I was finding it difficult to breathe and the cough was endless. My eyes kept tearing. My throat was itching. I felt so sick and horrible. Stayed awake the whole night thru and the next morning with a really bad headache and high fever, I checked in at the nearest hospital. The findings? I was hazed!!! Lol. My immune system was hazed thus all those complications. But am so grateful to be alive and to be able to blog about it. I have been drinking plenty of water...God knows how much!!! with the hope of removing all those toxic. Well, we all know that water is the remedy...so if you're affected by the haze, drink water! lots and lots of 'em... stay indoors as much as possible, eat more fruits and stay on healthy! Cheers. Love!

How haze can impact your health - take note!

tips to boost your immune system

drink lots and lots of water, it doesn't matter how much, you need to get those toxic out of your system

Lastly, don't you forget to SMILE...a SMILE itself will make you feel better!

It Rained!

It Rained! Yes!!! it did! How wonderful after almost a week of dry, humid and hazy condition. It was truly a relief to see such a heavy downpour a couple of hours ago. I am so sure the rain made everyone let out a sigh! and smile. I was in a friend's office at Kota Damansara when I heard the thunder followed by strong wind and then it poured. Thank God! this is what we wanted most. With the rain, I hope we get to see clearer skies tomorrow. And now for some facebooking and then off to bed! Cheers n Goodnight :)

Loved it! It rained at 5pm 25/6/2013

Smoky Hazey June

Here I am after almost 8 months. I know that's pretty long and if I said I never had the time, I'm sure you would never buy my story :) Anyways, just to to let you know that I am still alive and kicking and will try my best to come here regularly and share whatever that's happening in my life, right here in Malaysia.

Well, right now I am waking up to a mask day daily. Yup, the haze is so thick vision gets blurry. More than that it kinda makes one suffocate. Bad smoky haze and the smell of burnt wood is what I am getting daily. And, my morning birds are chirping less. What a sad state for 'em too. Me now praying and hoping for strong wind and rain. Guess, till then, we have to just be extra careful and be less in contact with the haze surrounding us.

So, that's a lil' of my current status. Will hop in again real soon...

Take care...Peace, Love & Light...always :)
