common

the keyFamiliarity bridges contempt, so they say. With all the routine of life, things become so common and boring. People would strive to make a difference because they think that’s the only way they could be uncommon.  Everyone wants to stand out. Everyone wants a special place. And everyone wants to be different. Still, when things are unachievable, we resort to the old ways. When life after the change become unfavorable, we go back to old habits. And when people tend to be unbearable, we use our common sense.

Life in general is common as seen in different angle. The key to good life is not making the difference but using our common sense to see life as a blessing.

celebrate life

angelI am grieving for the lost of my little one recently. It was the most devastating experience I had so far as a wife and a mother. For a span of 6 weeks, though I know that there is life inside me, and though I can’t still feel it, I know I am blessed. It was a so short experience of motherhood, but I had it. I celebrated life and though it has never come to full term, I still celebrated the miracle of life.

My loss is not a curse but a blessing. A blessing because, I was able to appreciate life more. A blessing because I was given a chance to create life even for just a short period of time. I am blessed with a little angel and he is watching over me now.
