Okay, I'll blog. My dedications for the year SUPPOSED to be up by end of today, but I guess the reason why it's still not up it's due to the most common
2007 has been a year of ups and downs, like every other year. Downs mainly, but after every so-called 'down', there's a valuable lesson learnt. A lesson that no books can teach. And the lesson is called EXPERIENCE. Hey it's true okay! You cant gain experience from just reading books and stuff. You need to go through it. And after each experience, there's a learning point, or for the matter point(S). Stuff that you realise your mistake from. Stuff where you discover your true self. Like the tamil saying says:
yethu nathanthetho, athu nandraghave nathanthathu.
yethu nathakiretho, athu nandraghave nathatkirethu.
yethu nathaka poakiratho, athu nandraghave nathakkum.
Direct Translation being:
Whatever that happened, it happened for good.
Whatever that is happening, it's happening for good.
Whatever that is gonna happen, it is gonna happen for good.
This saying has a really really deep underlying meaning. Things happen for a reason and God does things for a reason. Despite all these downs, I know and can bravely tell myself that I have gained alot from all these. Learning points that not only will help me in my schooling years, but will also guide me in future, in my life.
I really owe alot of people thanks these year. No, not thanks but gratefulness that cant be expressed in words. All those people who always have been there for me throughout all these years, or drop a hi sometimes to check on me, or cheer me up when I really needed it, etc. You know I may not have said it in person, but deep inside my heart I really feel it; the genuinity of all this small yet subtle actions. And everytime I feel it, I thank God for all the wonderful stuff that he's given me: wonderful family, wonderful friends, wonderful seniors, wonderful juniors, wonderful teachers, etc. The list can just be going on and on. It's just endless...
Even if you dont know me personally or whatsoever, just as long as you are reading this blog post highlights to me how much I mean to you that you even BOTHER to read my blog. I dunno how you guys take it, but yeah, I am grateful! Trust me.
And also to those people who SPAMS my email inbox with all those natpu and friendship emails. Haha! I am not meaning it in a negative kindof way...but just want to tell you how much I appreciate it. Cos, usually it's just that I am too carried on with other commitments, like schwork, cca, academic and all these kind of stuff. But I kinda guess that I usually feel stressed. And this little sweet emails on friendship, that you will always be there and stuff, are what that makes my day. I know it when people send these emails out of sincerity, and not because of, "oh, i dont want 10 years of bad luck", etc. And yet, these little emails are what that make me smile, in the midst of all my work and everything.
Once again, thanks for everything, everyone.
