Relationship.. great reading for the day

Found this good article shared by my lovely sister. It goes like this :

THE KEY TO SUCCEEDING IN MARRIAGE IS NOT FINDING THE RIGHT PERSON; IT'S LEARNING TO LOVE THE PERSON YOU FOUND.

SUSTAINING love is not a passive or spontaneous experience. It'll NEVERjust happen to you. You can't 'find' LASTING love. You have to 'make' it day in and day out. That's why we have the __expression 'the labor of love.'
Because it takes time, effort, and energy. And most importantly, it takes WISDOM. You have to know WHAT TO DO to make your marriage work.

Make no mistake about it. Love is NOT a mystery. There are specific things you can do (with or without your spouse) to succeed with your marriage.

Just as there are physical laws of the universe (such as gravity), there are also laws for relationships.
Just as the right diet and exercise program makes you physically stronger, certain habits in your relationship
WILL make your marriage stronger. It's a direct cause and effect. If you know and apply the laws, the results are predictable... you can 'make'
love.

Love in marriage is indeed a 'decision'... Not just a feeling.
Remember always this:

'God determines who walks into your life.It is up to you to decide who you let to walk away,who you let to stay, and who you refuse to let go.

How can I almost let it slipped from my mind ???

Getting wiser while aging...

It is a popular belief that you will get wiser as you age. Well, at least the saying has a profounding effect on me. I do realize that, as I get older, things started to get clearer in my head. Vision's clear so is the mind, not to mention the ability to analyze the reality vs. fantasy or I shall call it dream. It's nice to dream and I dreamt a lot especially during my younger years, those ignorant while innocent youthful mind that I once had. Looking back, while standing at where I am today, I could say there are things that I am glad I've achieved today. But there were also certain decisions that I wish I'd consult or at least shared with someone wiser if I were to decide one more time. Yeah I know, the "If only" remark is never applicable to us human in this lifetime. I'll just have to make a lemonade out of lemons despite asking for a bowl of juicy strawberries from God. Remember, its always half a glass Full or the other way round. Life goes on, the earth will continue rotating whether I like it or not. Better fall into the groves and dance in the rain.

So far so good

Havent had the mood to pen down something in my blog, since the last post about dad's departure. Well, all I could say is dad's leaving us suddenly (in a mattter of 1 month) does leave me with a huge 'wake up call' on my health and lifestyle. I realized that without a good health, it would be pointless for one no matter how much of cash you have in your bank. And most of it, I keep remind myself that now I have a young baby to take care I could no longer make excuses for not taking good care of myself. With a strong determenation, I made my first step to take up self taught yoga lesson, 2x/week 30 mins each session at home. I start to feel more energetic even a long exhausting day. Not to mention a huge and dramatic change to my body. Toned and defined figure started to emerge from a once plump and full of toxid body. All I can say is, I love the brand new me, less temperenmental, healthier, fitter and prettier :).
