Letter to Self: February 2013

Perhaps there's truth in saying "happiness is a continuous effort" and "happiness is a choice." Maybe, happiness is not really dependent on blissful moments or experiences of success. It's actually on how you see things, or how you choose to see things. After all, we can't be too happy all the time. And we can't control everything but our own mind. 

...if you need a little time with yourself along with nature...so be it...

...if you need to spend a little more to buy a luxurious slice of cake after a tiring day...so be it...

...if you need to surround yourself with happy people despite your hectic schedule...so be it...

Therefore, you have all the liberty and blessing to be happy...recognize that happiness is not a product, but rather a source of all things good. This is my new year's gift to you...a choice to be happy.

I never really appreciated those little  things...the way I could stretch my arms, hold a pencil, gallop, eat with both hands...those little mundane things...until I was hospitalized for two days. Yes, two days isn't much of time, but it was enough for me to get irritated with having no power to do whichever I need or want to do. I never felt so helpless, that I could almost, almost curse my tummy for malfunctioning. Anyhow, thank heavens, I'm all well and back! 

So, that was the first two days of 2013 for me, quite not so glittery, eh? But I don't mind. It's too early to judge a year by a few days. Hahaha. Guess the hospital air has gotten into my humor. So sickly. Hahaha. 

Positive vibes, you are so welcome in my lair. I won't give up :)
