more of the good stuff

Someone posted on Facebook or some where that the new year is not a reset button and I agree. Nothing will change until we take the right steps to make a change.

I'm particularly grateful this year for everything I have and don't have. This time I didn't bring my laptop with me to Kuching because of the screen problem and I've really missed it. But not having it made me read more and gave me the chance finally to pick up guitar. Now I want a guitar to keep playing. Interesting the way things turn out.

Here's to hoping the new year will bring even greater joy, peace, full measure of mercy, hope, goodness and love.

false assumptions

Today has been really good. Everything I set out to do has been done. One thing I notice is that despite being a last minute kind of guy, I make a lot of assumptions that are not always correct. So in reviewing the way I handled things I think it would have been better if I just made arrangements ahead of time.

Another thing I'm beginning to realise is that there are almost always last minute setbacks. It has happened so much that I always expect and plan for it. It doesn't mean I dont have faith that things will go well. I actually do, just that I don't like to be unprepared to face these unplanned situations.

I've always tried to be as independent as possible. And today I realised that there's a limit to how independent you can be. We all need people and even though sometimes they are not always reliable as much as we want, its easy to let it go when you realise you're no better. I thank God for everything that was accomplished today. It makes my trip down to Kuching something to look forward to even more.
