Discovering each day

Every time I resume blogging after a long break, I wonder how many 'followers' are still following.

Well, I must confess I have gotten lazy, hence the long long long 'break'. I used to think I would never succumb to the lazy bug-I remember asking a friend why she doesn't blog anymore and she said she was lazy and I was frowning in disapproval-alas! I too have contracted the deadly disease.

Laziness aside, a lot of it has to do with the fact that I take too long to pen my thoughts.

I deliberate over my words. I want it to be precise and immaculately accurate. That process, henceforth, takes a long time.

And as you would know if you have been following my blog, for the past one year, I was really busy preparing for my wedding.

The fact I can blog now is because, my dear Mr., is away.

Whatever happens to personal space, you say?

Nah, I am really just being lazy. I could have used the night to blog, but I was lazy.

I could have written my thoughts on the way to work and transfer it to the blog whenever I have time, never mind backdated entries, but I was lazy.

But you know what, despite being lazy, I must say this year has been an eventful year.

I have...

(almost) ended my contract, changed two jobs, got married and became a Mrs, gone to Europe and visited many cities within four weeks, moved house, cut down my daily (and settling into weekly) intake of coffee, completed 200 hours of yoga teacher instruction and am in the process of being a qualified yoga teacher, started on a pole dancing class, resumed jazz dance classes, successfully baked delicious marble cakes, lemon cakes and apple cinnamon muffins, and ...

I am still enjoying my process of self-discovery.

I am still raw in my current job, so it is really hard to say if I will stay here for good. I sure hope so! Seriously, I have gotten a bit tired of searching around.

The reality about life is, there is nothing known as a perfect job. There is only something called making the best out of whatever situation there is.

Like where I am now, it is not quite where I would have hope to land up. I was hoping to do something else...

But I was led here by God. And I believe that it will turn out good.

It is the same with my Yoga Teacher's Training. I would have opted to go to Spain, but the course was available, and I decided to fulfill this one aspiration I have been harbouring for a long time.

Life, time, waits for no one.

I will continue looking out for the blessings each day brings.

And marvel at the process of self-discovery each stint brings.
