Interesting post. Stay at home mum vs working mum

I get to choose my husband.

For that, I am grateful.

The voices inside my head are killing me.

Since I started this blog, I tried to keep things in this blog positive, uplifting, peaceful, just general good vibe.
But right now, I want to remind myself, that even when I believe I am exactly where I need to be right now, the 'right now' can still suck. A lot.
It is paralysing.

The voices inside my head are of no help at all.
Not to mention my head is throbbing, this headache of unknown origin is happening.

The voices are telling me-
you can't do anything right.
not even planning something that is supposedly so joyous, so wonderful...
supposedly what everyone seem to make a big deal...
... you can still make it so full of tears
- of loneliness
- of helplessness
- of guilt
- of pain
- of frustration
- of fear
... how is it possible?
I thought the despair and agony was supposed to be over and that nothing can be as bad again.
The emotional roller coaster this year has been challenging.
Right now I feel paralysed. Also I don't know what I can do... the thing is, if it is so bad, what can you possibly do to make it any worse, oh but the fear... the fear of possibly making it worse, is paralysing.
Tomorrow will be a better day, and things that are supposed to happen, will happen.
Breathe.

【家】不是講理的地方，是講愛的地方 愛一時容易，愛一生一世卻不容易

Meaningful email forward from Zoo back in 2009...

【家】不是講理的地方，是講愛的地方
愛一時容易，愛一生一世卻不容易

愛一個人……
要了解，亦要開解；
要道歉，亦要道謝；
要認錯，亦要改錯；
要體貼，亦要體諒；

是接受，而不是忍受；
是包容，而不是縱容；
是支持，而不是支配；
是慰問，而不是質問；

是傾訴，而不是控訴；
是難忘，而不是遺忘；
是彼此交流，而不是凡事交代；
是為對默默方祈求，
而不是向對方諸多要求；

可以浪漫，但不要浪費；
可以隨時牽手，但不要隨便分手；

以上都做到了，即使不再愛一個人，
也只有懷念，而不是懷恨。

A great weekend~

- what a great weekend!! - time with my special man, work with yummy home made lunch, 大鬧天宮, sleep, church, lunch at home with family <3, movie [argo] with popcorn and yummy drink, dinner with sc friends + teacher...!

Perfect Timing.

As I was bogged down for some unknown reason recently... trying to reflect and evaluate my current realities... and realising perhaps I could not have visualised it until I am living in it... And perhaps a little bit burnt out... (although I fail to justify why I am burnt out since I am not doing as many consults as my peers?)

Angels around me showering me with presents.
I almost cried when I got home and received the thoughtful and lovely present from my mother.

I cannot express myself well enough, but I am well and truly touched.

Pa's Birthday 2012.

HKJC, Shatin. 29 Sept 2012.
一個不太可愛的老人。
但就誕下了我爸。
然後就和一個超可愛的女子誕下我。
相信二十年來第一次爸能夠和他媽慶祝生晨。
算頗溫馨吧。

I Love my Mum.

Taken at SKM.
Did a little mineral foundation on Ma. <3

PC. My cute mum.

One of Ma's many wonderful foods...

Although since I've started working I sometimes find eating dinner a chore, it is difficult not to admire and be completely in awe in my mum's ability to make wonderful foods even after a full day's work.

The best mum in the world...
