In retrospect, year end is just around the corner. Another one will come with thousands of struggle and test to prepare us for next year to come. Sitting alone in New Year's Eve, jotting down some notes and re-schedule my plan for tomorrow
And i began to ponder,what exactly this year has taught me
And i began to ponder,what exactly this year has taught me
Sometimes new challenge and risks can level you up so that you take a new perspectives in a different angle and height, that's what it meant to be ripe and matured. There will be something that are left in this year and there will be many that'll be picked up along the way and become significant in years to come
So much have been learned and so much have been missed, said and done
Precocious Year
We all are anxious and curious about what's in store for us next year or will be there something different? Or will it became as stagnant and as dull as this year would be? Whatever answers next year hold will be depending on us whether we gonna make it happen & change, or not.
Do you go with the flow? Or do you go against the stream?
I still remember when Nutricity Team had this 'Dream Board' session. We create our own Dream Board for 2013, we talk about our dreams, we laugh, we motivate each other and lastly we present and declared it to others.
Precociously, we're defining our own motives, motivations and also our dreams for next year and with dreams, automatically there will be plans. We are anxious, that's why we plan, we know what we want, that's why we decide
Decisions
It's funny to think that how someone who was just a total stranger, that you don't even know their existence last year, mean so much to you now. :) At the same time it's terrible, to realize that someone who meant so much to you, turned to a mere stranger now.
Amazing what a year can do to your life. Here's a story
H & A are strangers. Met at one big event in Singapore last May, exchanging look and maybe smile to each other, talking and exchanging views maybe, and that's it. A week had passed and they got in contact,often. In time, H got this urgent feeling of, i'd say, affection, and clearly he's not the only one to feel it
H decide to get serious & on one fateful day, H asks A for her hands and she said yes.
Cut the story short, they got engaged & married to each other on December 30th. Yes, in the same year. It was brief, yet so simple and meaningful. It's just about 7 months before they got married.
When asked about what makes them choose each other, the pair said "I don't know, it's just i feel he's/she's the one, and we decide there and then"
7 months can totally turn their lives to a better, because of one simple decision.
In a tangent, all i want to say is this year have taught me a simple decision can change your life, often forever. To a better or worse, we have to decide because it starts from ourself, because sometimes, eventually we have to choose between the uncertainty & the obvious.
Which way or what you choose, will define you
"The problem is whether you choose the right way or the easy way"
Count Your Blessings
Decide what you want in this blessed year, decide that 2013 will be the best year ever. 2012 was kind and adventurous but that's that, surely you don't want last year to be forever in your future right. So its time to move forward.
Embracing new chapters is always exciting & healing, even when you know it hurts
For me 2013 is like a granted wish for me to be a better insaan, better muslim & hopefully to be a good husband for my wonderful wife-to-be, insyaAllah :)
Happy New Year everybody, God bless you all, have a splendid year ahead & may all of your dreams in 2013 come true insyaAllah :)
Till then,
Assalamualaikum :)
