further thoughts.. an emphasis

just wanted to add on to my previous post today. another thought came to mind.

[remember the cliche thing about "life is not a beautiful bed of roses"? even if it is, roses have thorns, that's what i'm trying to say.]

i like to and try to believe that there are always two sides to every story.

i just remembered what Marcus said.. since stress is inevitable in our lives, would you rather choose to have positive or negative stress (letting it get to you)? the answer is obvious lah!

i think our memories work in the same way too. things work both ways so i realised we cannot do without them (yes - we can't do without the haunters too, they're all a part of us - totally unavoidable), but yes! - we can choose to cherish the good ones more than ever.. rather than let them slip away from our thoughts while we constantly remind ourselves of (and fill our brains to the brim with) the haunters.

we should let our haunters serve as a reminder to treasure our lovely memories forever instead of letting it manifest itself into our insecurities which in turn become a barrier to tasting more of the yummy stuff in life!

this may sound like a repeat to what has been said in the previous post. but they just came to mind. so bo bian, must share with the world right? if secrets are so hard to keep to oneself, what's more non-secrets! haha.

a toast to all on optimism! each and every single one of you!

with love,
abby

p.s: four more freaking days!
