Simple things in life

October 30, 2009

i feel happy when i see our clothes getting the sun when we push it out to dry.
i feel happy when i get a ride from some mrt to my god forsaken god knows where workplace.
i feel happy when Ashlyn is sleeping peacefully in her cot
i feel happy when i wake up to find Ashlyn sleeping in between me and wifey
I feel happy when i get to meet my old friends

Sometimes you really need very little things in life eh

2 months old

October 18, 2009

Ashlyn is going to be 2 months old in a couple of days. yesterday night chris asked me, what have i learnt for the past 2 months?

and i am like what?!?! Is she an undercover working for the organisation?! Everyday at work people like to ask you to journal, reflect, write down ur lesson learnt and when i reach home, my wife is also asking me the same thing!! HAHA.. it was damn funny la.. but reflecting is always good ya.. its always good to sit down, take stock of what u have learnt, consolidate and then move on to things better..

so maybe i’ll take a couple more moments to think through what i have learnt these 2 months..

love unconditionally. baby is a burden. thats why it is unconditioned love. she takes up 80% of ur resources and yet gives nothing back. sometimes not even a smile or thank u! so yes, i learnt to love unconditionally.

i learnt that work is really just secondary..  when i was in the previous department, i was damn scared to take mc or leave. thinking that only the weak and the free can take those two evils. but i guess that is also the culture of my workplace.. but now, work is really just secondary.. how much can i earn? how high can rise? i will earn enough to feed my family, if not i will just eat lesser durians and downgrade to a smaller house. i will rise high enough to earn enough to feed my family.. haha.. promotion is secondary.. the delta is very little of course.. but every single min u spend with baby and wifey is precious.

its really amazing to see ur baby grow a little everyday.. i cant bear to not come home a day and miss seeing her grow up.blog

this is my family and i love them!
