In life, there seem to be very rare moments when people beat all odds and make the impossible possible, this moments are very rare. Some people call this luck, fortune or whatever. I choose to think this moments are made by people just like you and me. :)
In the past I used to stress out about problems and etc., I felt boxed in and without a way out, but as the years went by I realized that I had always come out of those seemingly "impossible" situations, eventually the problems got solved one way or another. Yes... Everything has a beginning and an end, problems do the same. So by looking back I realized that whatever challenge I had in the present, had a solution. Maybe time tells you what to do, or it heals all.
Yesterday, I felt not easy after 4pm, the feeling was not good at all, just came down with it. I couldn't continue my works anymore, I stayed in the office till 6:30pm, went down for early dinner. I looked at green leafs on the trees surrounding me, hoped that it helped to relax my mind, but it didn't.
After 8:30pm, I left my office, I didn't go back home but IKEA! One of my favourite places, :). I walked along, looked at the furnitures, and the colours, it helped to refresh my mind, and I've forgot about the bad feeling that I had earlier on. Out of sudden, a small kid came to me, he pulled my long pants and called me Kor-Kor (elder brother), I was surprised, "Who's kid?" I was wondering... I looked around, noticed there was a lady walking to me with her smiley face. Yes, she looked familiar but I just couldn't recognize. She said "Hi, I'm Yee..", then only I recalled who she was. She's a long lost friend, for about 6-7 years.
Thought about it, I was renting a house at Section 17 in Petaling Jaya about 7 years back. Same to Yee, she was renting a room nearby, studying at University Malaya (UM). I got to know her, because she jogged in the evening, she by passed my house and we waved. Sometimes we knocked into each others at the same restaurant which is nearby our place. As I still remember, she was cheated by a guy (so called a boyfriend) who was never responsible for her pregnancy. She was very sad, tension and feeling hopeless. I couldn't help much, just gave my spiritual support to her. After a month plus, she left the place and we never kept in touch anymore. We met again at IKEA.
After that, we went to a cafe for drinks. We talked about the past, there were nothing much on me, but a lot of changes for her. She had been a single mother for years, shared with me about how did she manage to overcome all the problems she had, she worked hard to bring up the kid, was lucky enough to have family, friends and strangers to give her supports. The bad guy was never be there with her, left her alone somehow, I was quite angry with that idiot's behaviour, not to mention about him here, he was nothing to me at all. The kid was cute and energetic too, enjoyed eating and making funny faces to me, asked me silly questions and yet... I didn't know how to answer him, quite a smart kid. I was enjoying to have some funs with the kid too. She admitted that she was silly at 1 time, and luckily she didn't go for abortion. Anyway, she is now feeling happy with her life, to have a kid accompany her, she says to me that she will never regret at all, the kid means everything to her.
Well, there is always a way out as I wanted to share. Treasure everything in our life, clearly understand what do we want, and head for achievement. We will never avoid some problems along the journey, just be brave enough to overcome them and we will success in a way.
Advice to the girls, please fully utilize your eyes to look at the guy who you are be with. Just like my brother's father-in-law tells his daughters, if you have 4 eyes or more, just use them up, to know the guy more clearly. I agree with this statement.. :)
Cheers.. Thanks for reading.
