New year signifies new beginnings,restarting anew,having new mindset on different aspects of our lives...feeling positive to take a step everyday. Really, new year brings us new vigor, zest and enthusiasm to face our daily living.
For the past 37 years of existence , planning ahead made me feel good but the year 2008 changed my perspective in life. Then, I always wish for material satisfaction and greater heights to soar in my career. 2008 had me on hold and thoughts of what I have done in my life and where I am now and where do I want to be for the coming years filled my mind.
And for the first time in my busy life, I realize that plans that I prayed and surrendered to the Lord have greater impacts and they are the ones that make me smile and be thankful.
I learned to appreciate my daily existence, the quiet moments , the laughters and smiles of my loved ones, the happiness of loving myself more.
I learned to give and share. Getting the warmth of joys whenever receivers appreciate what I have given.
I love the unexpected lessons and inspirations I learned from the stories of different people I encountered in my workplace , malls, vans and places I am visiting.
Indeed , there are so many wonderful factors when we become simple in mind, heart and soul. And this 2009, I want to open whatever surprises God will bring in my doorsteps...
