This is for the Future- 5, 10, 50 years down the road.

There are days, I wake up and I pinch myself. That you're with me, not some one else.

I smiled the entire way through my run today.

I skipped through the sad songs because they no longer resonate, and I can't remember why they ever did. I circle this happy one; this one that trembles with love, joy and a little bit of delicate fear. For I have something that I actually fear to lose, for the first time in this lifetime. I have You. 

You're Fearless, when I'm fearful. You're logical where I'm over emotional. You're willing to take a leap of faith, when I'm held back by my worries and self fulfilling prophecies. You're the start of every story I want to participate in and close. And I'm so much Braver now, because of you. 

In due time, when we are on the cusp of a new life together. 
In due time, when we are on the cusp of a busy and mundane life together. 
In due time, when we are on the armchair looking back together. 
I know I will turn to you and smile this same contented smile as I have today. 
This smile that I'm surprised to feel in my heart. 
This smile that tells us that we have both found our forever home. 

I Love You. Thank you, for finally appearing. Thank you for being unabashedly you. 

❤

I think it's time to start afresh, right up from ground zero. Funny to attempt a rebirth of character at a quarter of a century, I know. (okay, i confess i struggled between whether I'm a quarter of a decade or quarter of a century old). But well, some things have to be done! To quote my favouritest female singer-songwriter; my (sort-of) life inspiration; "to give yourself a new life, you have to give the other one away". I am famous for holding on too tightly to the past. Perhaps it's time to let good, let go. Seek forgiveness, and also forgive myself for old wrongdoings, whether or not I truly deserve it (who's to judge?). Life simply must not be spent wallowing in the past. (For we are not warthogs, hakuna matata) So-  Hello world, again.  (: sk p/s: #(parenthesesabuse)

“I've gained more from serving my patients than I have given to them; it's a privilege to be a healthcare professional. Indeed, it's in giving that we receive, and in losing ourselves that we find ourselves” - Dr Phillip Yap Well said Dr Yap. 4 years of bond is quickly drawing to an end. As I sit here rather aimlessly, waiting for time to pass in preparation for my night shift tomorrow, the late hours has allowed me some quiet time for reflections. When was the last time I did this?! (It's appalling!) Looking back on the past 4 years, I wondered which lessons and emotions stood out the most. Is it the resentment from the occasional unhappy episodes at office, or the 委屈 from the random angry patient? I suppose I really did have my fair share of those. But above everything else, I still relish the fulfillment that I get from knowing that I have made a difference to a patient today (teehee, look at that confidence XD). I said this same thing to a couple of close friends ...

A much needed, incoherent rant.

When things get sensationalised, i wonder, do we think before we react? I keep trying to be absolutely objective in making a decision. Then i realise, honestly, it's quite the impossible thing to do. You see, this thing called selective perception and selective attention is something that people fall to, almost everytime. And this is not an academic smoke piece. Considering things properly, people believe what they wish to believe, and once that thought catches on i guess pretty much anything can be twisted to suit your desired perception- whatever it is you want. Perhaps it's a natural cognitive process. It is just that much easier to have a stand and fit evidences to it, than to view evidences before making a stand. I tried to exercise objectivity, and think from both sides, their individual merits and demerits, before making a stand. i tried to compare to politics in other countries, look back deep into our own history and others', look at real trends before i make a dec...
