    Busy busy days!

    It has been a very hectic week for me and i am totally drained mentally and physically!
    Still, i am glad that it has been over.
    Pink monster suggested that i might turn into a workaholic which i agree to a small extent.
    We discussed how i can't stand having nothing to do and just slack my days/hours away.
    Perhaps time is precious to me and i may be too ambious in trying not to waste any of it.
    But i am happy, living life with love, loving the life i live.
    i felt spritually enriched and some incidents let me to reflect upon friendships this week.

    1) Spritually enriched.
    Went to visit a prayer hall of a friend whom we never really talk to for the past 10 years.
    We were good friends in our younger days, doing chalets and silly things together.
    At first, i was abit hesitant about meeting her 10 years later!
    But the moment we met her and her parents, i could feel their sincerity towards god and the happiness of coming back to the zone.
    Everything the parents did is for this path to heaven.
    Almost teared after listening to the parent's self introduction of how they came in contact with god.
    it has been quite a while since i felt this way.
    Although it was just  5 of us in the prayer hall, we prayed orderly and sincerely.
    That session left me very reflective and washed away all my tiredness.
    I am set and ready to bridge the 10 years gap between us.

    2) Friendship
    So this leads to a discussion on friendship.
    Who are your true friends?
    For me, i am god's blessed child to have many adorable and lovable friends
    and i am grateful to have my besties around me since pri sch till now.
    We don't need to go out everyday, talk to each other everyday,
    hide from each other our true opnions, accomodate to each other's high expectations on friendship.
    We talk about anything and everything under the sun and feel so so comfortable with each other
    that slience isn't awkward.
    Our friendship is based  on love, faith and most importantly appreciation.

    Some friends are just passer bys of your life, while others tend to demand alot from you.
    Although they diden voice out their expectations, they do expect alot from you.
    It is stressful to be in such high maintanance friendship.
    And unfortunately, there are such people around us.
    In my opnion, i will TRY to hint and approach the person once.
    If those demanding expectations persist, i would rather forgo the friendship than to work on it.
    treat me as cold blooded but some things can't be force or nurture.
    Can't click means can't click.
    And why should i supply you with my actions to satisfy your demand?
    Doesn't make sense at all.

    While there are some demanding ones,
    i feel that the worst of the kind will be unappreciatve ones.
    Probably they do not know how to appreciate that gesture
    Probably they do not know how to appreciate the thoughts
    but its time that they should learn this virtue and start living life.
    What's the use of a degree when you don't even know how to say thank you?
    I will show my respect for a primary school kid who knows appreciation compare to you.
    Therefore, one thing i like about my school is that they teach SA, sense of appreciation to the kids and my kids really do it. For now at least. So if kids can do it, adults should not have any problem?
    Deteriorating of social values, what will our future kids be like if their parents don't even appreciate?
    Life without appreciation is pathetic.
    Trust me, nothing will work without appreciation in long run.

    These people serve as mirrors and i tell myself that i can't let the unappreciative monster spirits come to me. Never!

    So ya, these are two of the greatest lessons in life i learnt this week. Now bedtime to recharge for the weekend to come.

    Reflections in the makings of a better person women =)
