I have a lot of thoughts running through my head today. And they are in no logical order and seem very random as they come. I sometimes get a burst of thoughts that don’t relate to each other and it makes my mind feel very busy because they come all at once! So here are some of my disoriented thoughts for the day.
I was hoping the weekend can go on longer than just the 48 hours but I suppose it is an impossible wish to come true. Nevertheless, it was indeed a great weekend and although I thought it was going to be tough coming back to work on a Monday, it didn’t seem to be as bad as I thought. Maybe I just needed more positive thoughts and focus to get by the day.
Time flies. Before we know it, it’s half the year gone already. Soon, we’ll all be in holiday mood when Raya comes around early this year. And then comes year end. I love end of the year periods because of the festivities around that time. It’s Christmas time and then the new year dawns on us and not long after, it’s Chinese New Year in the new year ahead. It all seems very colourful and bright, and with renewed dreams and hopes for an even better year ahead.
We’re going to be celebrating a lot of birthdays in between this time to then too. So it’s also made merrier with all the celebrations and happy moods all around. Next month my boy is already turning two. It seemed like just yesterday I was holding the little newborn in my arms 
How time flies!
And before I know it, it also means time for renewals of a lot of policies for him, his education plan, medical plan, etc. God knows how many types of life insurance we all buy for the sake of protection as well as a way to force savings! That’s not even including any other form of investments like unit trust funds that we start buying for the kid now!
All that aside, it’s also time to look deeper into myself. I don’t know if this is a cyclical thing for me or anybody else, but I find that come mid year most of the time I feel that I need some kind of soul searching to see where I am and where I’m headed. Do you have that kind of phase in your life too?
Lately I’ve also managed to put aside some time to indulge in one of my favourite past times – to read. I’ve not done so for a while already. All the books that I picked up from the Big Bad Wolf warehouse sales are still sitting around untouched. It feels good to be able to pick up a book, get addicted to it and feel inspired by the contents. It is sometimes through books that I feel motivated to do things differently and to dare to dream.
I’m soon getting some time off and finally I will be able to do what I need to set out to do. But I haven’t quite planned my days well and now I feel quite disorganised about not being able to use my time wisely. I still have some time to get things together, so maybe I should spend my time to plan now and not blog!
I shall go and do that now…told ya my thoughts are everywhere today!
