Phantom's Still Standing...

Looking back on how time flies, this site has been around for quite a while. It captured quite a fair bit of what I went thru for the past few years. Though not all are pink and rosy (in fact, it had been rather turbulent), I’ve learnt a lot. I’ve found the courage to acknowledge my own shortcomings. I’ve learn to forgive and I’ve learnt to keep my head up when everything around is bleak.

I’ve found that it is important that I take stock on what I’ve done over the past few years. To learn from the set-backs I’ve had and to credit myself for the things that I’ve done well. Life seems to have a whole new meaning to me now. Having been to the edge and back, I’ve seen a lot to appreciate the things I have now, better.

I’ve reconcile with dad, got a new job which is very fulfilling, got married & Carol is expecting, my new flat is arriving soon (yeah, we went for the recent Walk-In Selection from HDB and got a flat) and most of all, to know that Iggi is still so close to me despite being so far away.

Now… as I look around me and I see people grumbling at their dissatisfactions with their lives, I have only one advice for them… “count your blessings, not your misfortunes”… Really… its the blessings we have only matters and not our misfortunes, you’d find life great… And if you think that its easier said than done, look at me… look at all that I’ve been thru… I’m still standing. We can lose everything in this world, but just don’t lose ourselves…
