Blessed and loving it!

I don’t care what anyone else says – I think I am one of the most blessed people on this earth! I have the most loving family ever, the most thoughtful cousins, aunties and uncles…I know the most “elite” girls there are to know, I have the most genuinely caring friends…I have it all! And that includes “material” things as well - tried filling in a budgeting form today and had to list 3 things I needed - couldn’t do it! Its the best yet most mind-boggling thing ever and I love it!

Chinese new year has never really been a big thing to me. Just a whole lot of eating, lion dances, ang pows and any other “chinese-y” thing you can think of. This year, things have been different though and I’m embracing it all! The family time, jokes, mindless chatter, photos…just everything! Its been one of the most enjoyable “ushering in the new year” times ever – think I have a new, even BIGGER appreciation of my whole extended family…+1’s – if thats even possible! Oh on a side note, my mum found the “white strips” in my bag – she thought they were bandages and asked if someone had had a fight…hmm…explained the whole “tablecloth tradition” to her and she couldn’t believe us “older” ones would do such a thing - no comment!

To the most “elite” group of girls I know - WOW! Who would have thought 9 years later we’d be where we are?! Its amazing – and totally awesome! I’m still trying to process the “special-ness” we share…and its hard! A wonderful, fantastic hard though! hehe

So much good has come out of these past few weeks I don’t think I’d trade it for anything…hmmm…well maybe I would but yeah – we won’t go there! I love my life and everything about it – and I want to thankyou for opening my eyes once again to the beauty, majesty and glory which surrounds me and will continue to, all the days of my life!
