Dear Diary
welcome into the arms of 2013... the year with no resolutions for me as yet... It is still surreal that we have stepped away from another year and begun a fresh 365 days.
Shadows of the past year are still following me around, sometimes playing a little hide-and-seek... I don't mind. What doesn't kill us, makes us stronger. I have never really believed it to be true until now.
January has been rather uneventful for me besides some dinner and drinks sessions here and there... basically it has been work, side-line, shopping, home, read / TV and sleep.
I need to start writing again. It defines me, it is something that forms a part of me, un-detachable, and it is who I am. I have the contents all in my head, but to compose them into words is a challenge.
Other than that, I went for a short trip during the Spring Equinox period. There were some visitations to local temples and palaces, but as this is my third time there, we did more of shopping, massage and eating.
Then there was St. Valentine's Day with mon beau.
I am back in yoga practice. Need to balance the mind, body and soul.
And I have decided that instead of letting things happen to me, I should start going out there and happen to things.
There is death everywhere lately - natural catastrophes, illnesses and old age, shootings, accidents etc. It is a part of life, indeed, but it still doesnt erase the initial fresh pain of losing someone. My paternal relations were commenting the other day at an aunt's wake that we should stop gathering at dark events as such, and someone should organize joyous gatherings - but who? With the older generation bidding their farewell one by one, the onus lie on us to focus on staying in touch, if not, we would not even know who our kin are in future. Rest in peace and stay remembered.
The next month's entry will entice more. Till then.
