Little Things Matter: things happened for a reason
In February 2024, I met someone in a Bus heading to Park Mall; he’s usually not heading that direction but he’s going to meet a business partner and they’re going to meet somewhere.

If only I knew what I know today
If given the chance to go back in time where ego is not an option, I will accept defeat and move on. “It’s not for me, so why force it?” I have lived my life proving myself I’m good enough.

What keeps me going? The FUN of doing little things
“The time has come when I finally have to decide whether to continue the Marathon or to stop.” I was very tempted to just get in a bus and rest, but I wasn’t there to give up. I was there to face my weaknesses; shame of being seen in pain and barefoot, fear of beingContinue reading “What keeps me going? The FUN of doing little things”
