A New Chapter

I have decided to resume writing now, putting everything behind and starting a new chapter in life. I have certainly gained a lot of insight in life through some soul searching and self reflection in the past few months, I discovered that there are times in life where one person just does not have control over, no matter how much you tried.

Letting go and forgiving is definitely something that has a new meaning to me, no matter how wrong a person has done you in the past, only by truly forgiving them and letting go would you only be able to move on with life. I could only wish them all the best in life.

I have also accepted the fact that people do change, and throughout the entire incident that has happened in the past few months, I've got many people that I would like to thank. I now truly know who my friends are and who are not, who are the people that would stand by you no matter what. The best thing that could ever happen is that I finally get to see the real colors of certain individuals, something that even money couldn't buy.

My previous jobs requires me to travel so often and spending long business trips overseas that sometimes I don't even have time for myself. I consider myself lucky now to be able to work in an environment where I have so much flexibility and I could minimize traveling, at least for the time being.

With all the deals going on now in Sudan, China, Taiwan and Indonesia, I pray that I could have a few more months of honeymoon before I start my hectic business trips again. Looking at the bright side, at least my frequent flyer points are going to reach new heights again.

I am so much happier now because I could spend more time with my family and friends, and it really feels good getting back in touch with long lost friends. I was having dinner the other day with Angie and she said to me "who you choose to be with defines who you are", well said isn't it?

I would like to pen off this post with the message to the intended person (you know who you are):

"Hey, I know it’s a rough journey in the past. We both did put in our best effort, it lasted a while but too bad it did not work out, no hard feelings alright. We're not meant for each other, we should have ended it 2 years ago.

Right now, what’s most important is that you find your true happiness. Forget about what others think of you, they're not you and they probably wouldn't be able to understand what you're going through. Who cares what’s right and what’s wrong? Life's too short for that.

If you're happy now, go ahead and follow what your heart tells you. I am sure sooner or later people would be able to understand and even accept it.

I am happy now, so should you."
