Home........

Have you heard the song by Michael Buble, called home? To me, its one of the best songs ever written in these few decades. Meaningful, slow but melodious in its own away. When I listen closely to the lyrics (get the lyrics from HERE), it talks about someone away from home probably in order to make ends meat, and in search for better pastures. When I listen to it, I am drowned out by the meaningful lyrics which sounds so good with his voice. I guess, even I miss home even though I am not exactly far from it.

The feel of entering my home after a tough day at work, just feels so comfortable. I may not hear a welcome from a fancy butler nor I do I see a large chandelier in my home, but deep down, I feel a nice warmth that makes me feel good and just tells me in my heart, "you are home, kid!".

The best part about home? I get to have a quiet time for myself just to simply space out into the ceiling and resting my mind from all the worldly commitments that simply makes life a lot more burdensome. And, not to mention I get to blog!

Most importantly, my home is some place I can always turn to in times of motivation drought or confusion. Which, I am facing at this point in time. Work is never ending. Not surprising at all! But worst of all, I have difficulties trying to find my groove. Everytime I think I have learned something, I end up finding out I got it wrong all the while. Figuritavely speaking, imagine yourself walking up a staircase, and everytime just when you about to reach the next floor, someone kicks you right back down to the very first step you begin with. Frustrating? You tell me!

hiatus!

After having been online on the ~Path of Time~ since 2006..... it is going to be hard, painful and sad. As of today, I will officially stop writing on the ~Path of Time~. For those who have continued to read my posts, I thank you very much for taking timeout to read my posts. I am not sure if all my writings were great but I'll be happy to know even if it was only one post that reached your heart. I may one day pick up from where I left off here but only time will tell. Who knows I might even start afresh? Until next time.......... time stops ticking for the ~Path of Time~

one foot in the past, another in the future........ what about the present?

All of us go through a cycle, what we commonly call - the past, present and the future. It can probably be summed up by this simple phrase: " we come from the past to be in the present and look forward to the future ". Now, what I want you to do is take a step back, or just give your mind a minute or two to digest the above mentioned phrase. Ask yourself if it applies to you. Really ask yourself; and I mean REALLY ask yourself in the most honest of manner, whether it really applies to you. You may find it difficult to arrive at a 'yes' and even if you do, you probably find yourself in a paralysis state of mind trying to justify the 'yes'. If you really ponder about it, you are likely to find that most of us would find this phrase more relevant instead: " we come from the past and look forward to the future " You will find many of us either hang on to the past or look far too forward into the future, or likely for some to even be dwelling too much in ...

my first tow truck ride

It was like every other Saturday morning for me yesterday. Woke up early to get breakfast, get ready for my weekly rock climbing sessions. I felt pretty good yesterday since I managed to sleep the night before so I was feeling very energized and upbeat about my climb session. I might have spoke too soon though because my car decided to pull a fast one on me. I found it surprising because I always went on preventive maintenance for my car so I really wasn't expecting any breakdowns especially I didn't hear any sound symptoms, neither did I saw any signs of an impending breakdown. After all, it is only logical that mechanical parts would give out some form of symptoms to let you know it's about to go. I was actually driving myself to rock climbing, feeling all geared up and gung-ho about it. As I approached an uphill climb and right bend, I realised I was losing compression and the car was starting not respond to my pedal work on the accelerator. To make matters worse because...
