A New Chapter In My Daughter's Life

I am delighted to share with you the high school graduation of my daughter Michelle. With all the circumstances that surround her well-being, I can't help but feel  glad that finally she's done with high school and soon will be finding her place in this world.

I also cannot help it but feel proud of her because she's a fighter too like her mom. Going to the same university as mine and taking a course same as mine, she's indeed my daughter. 

To you Yan, life maybe cruel at times, it may not be what you want it to be, it may bring you joy, it may cause you  to fall down, it may lead you to success, it may be hard, it may be easy but you must remember wherever your life's adventure brings you, your family will always be your comfort and strength. We may not be complete but when two or three of us are together....that's HOME.

I love you my daughter. I may not always be at your side but remember that you have my character and strength. I have survived and so will you.

Positive Confusion

Positive confusion. A dear friend told me this during one of our recent conversation and I can't help but agree with her. Both of us are having confusing situations and instead of feeling down and out, we thrive in these confusing times. We get to laugh and we get to have "kilig" (exciting) moments. 

It's been a year and a half already after my fateful separation from ex and I am a liar if I say I am not enjoying the freedom that came with it. My friends keep telling me that I look better now, sounds better now and there's none of that heaviness that has been in me for the past years. I couldn't agree more, well, allow me to say that maybe it goes with age too. 

Everyday challenges in our jobs, relationships and family can be a letdown, mind boggling daily confusion  but these are being met confidently. Positive intrusion from unexpected individuals are cherishly welcome. Confuse because these intrusions somehow give us that positive and undescribable feeling? Hey. Bring 'em on.
