My Century Post!

I just realised that this will be my 100th post! Can you say a century post??? Anyway, right or wrong, people usually make it a cause for celebration. Reflecting back to my 1st post, one of the reasons why I started was that I was inspired by Jen. I'm reminded of her strength and determination and will always miss her. I know she's happy where she is, having move on with her new life. God bless her family. I supposed when I'm no longer here, my blog will still be around and that itself will leave some part of me behind. So, apart from this being the 100th post, being alive and well (albeit with a recovering "eye") is a cause for celebration! Yes, I'm thankful. Thankful for what I have and for who I have in my life. I have indeed been truly blessed.

Here's some pointers from an article that I came across from Complete Woman Oct/Nov 2005 issue. I won't type in the summary but I believe the keywords are self explanatory.

I have actually done some of things in this list. Do you have your own list? I think we should all have one, one that we should act on - start living. Too difficult? Then maybe you can use the one above as your list of things to do. Have a great life!

I just love the colours of this pic I took in Turkey. That's how our lives should be, full of colours and spiced up for extra "oomph"!

We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures. ~ Thornton Wilder
