Blessings in Disguise ♥

There is a phrase which I always hold in my heart ' when one door close, another door opens'

When something bad happens, you have three choices. You can either let it define you, defeat you or strengthens you.

It is how we look at the situation and respond to it. How we persevere when we hit the stumbling blocks. So when you bump to one, smash through it, go around it, jump over it, burrow under it or do anything as long as you continue to believe that 'sometimes good things fall apart, so that better things can fall together.'

Things do happen for a reason. It hurts and made us cry. But it either makes us weaker or stronger.

You have a choice to choose how you want it to be because things which seems bad to us in the past or now, might turn out to be good in future.

He was the person who came into my life, walked along with me and made me a better person.

His sincerity touched my heart.
His support was the greatest gift I ever had and could ever asked for.
His patience towards me was beyond my expectation.
His kindness and gentleness makes me feel warmth and love.
His giving without expecting anything in return earns respect from me.
His passion and enthusiasm on the thing he does inspires me.
His positive and cheerful character makes him fun to be with.

He may not be as rich to buy me expensive gifts, but he would make sure I have my tummy filled, I ate a proper meal and if I don't, he will 'tapau' or cook 'maggie mee' for me which he tried not to allow me having it too often cause its unhealthy. He is a real big eater who needs a few plates to fill up his gigantic tummy, but yet he will replace another plate with just plain white breads. And all he does was to make sure I have sufficient finance to go abroad and finish my studies even I told him I have enough. He does pamper me with really good food though. We don't only eat roadside food :)

He may be busy, but he'll make sure he spends time with me whenever he could even after a long day in college or after a tiring workout and always stood by my side, giving me all the support and care he could for years.

He may have a bad day, but he will never complain about his problems (or maybe he did, once in a blue moon)

At times I may be hard to handle, my temper was bad but his patience overcome all of it and makes our differences complete.

We may be having a bad time, both frustrated but he will never fail to say those three words to me before we fall asleep.

He was always there for me during my bad times, supporting me all the way, comforting me and giving me the strength to go on and keep telling me that I can do it, which I did. But I took certain things for granted, I was never really there for him, to support him, to cherish what he has done for me or to simply tell him 'I have faith in you that can do it too'. At times, I don't even know he was having a bad time because I never bother to ask expecting he would tell. But there are certain people who keeps everything in their heart until someone ask.

But all things happened for a reason, a good one indeed. We created a story which was written not in a complete book, but at least it occupies a few pages. Even though it was not for a lifetime, but at least it was for a moment. And this moment creates a memory which stays for a lifetime.
"Some people come into our lives and quickly go, some stay and make footprints in our hearts."

It was a blessing to know him, I learned a lot from him on how to love, how to treat others, how to stay positive and how to feel grateful for all that we have and we don't. 
"What seems to us as bitter trials are often blessings in disguise."
It makes me understand feelings. From my own experience, I could give my friends advices. The happiest thing was when my friend told me " it makes me feel better after talking to you and whenever I am hit with the issue again, I will always remember the things you told me"

I am glad to make my experience a platform for helping others to keep their relationship going.
I don't think I did much, but the least I could do is to understand wholeheartedly how they feel.

Life is at such. Things don't always stay the same as how it used to be. But when things doesn't go your way, remember,
 "Just because everything is changing, doesn't mean its never been this way before"

Thank you for always being there for me and blessed birthday to you :)


Love
