When you fail

When you fail, do you blame your self or blame others ?

What would be the initial reaction ?? How many of us actually reflect before we make the first accusation ? I know my failure in this marriage and I can only learn from it.

I am having difficulty and I am not sure if there is a need to make any explanation. Two years ago was the most unhappy moments in my life. I went through the hard time emotionally, financially and almost like the whole world was against me. I quit my job, my husband walked out, accused me of disloyal towards his love for me (don't get me wrong, nothing to do with me committing adultery....hahaha), at the end it was me feeling the betrayal when he admitted that he has a new love, loss of income source, he left me with bad debts and I have to cope with life with 3 kids.

Now two years has gone, it is time to make a closure to this relationship. He wanted a divorce and didn't want any custody of the children. And over two years, he hasn't seen the children at all and not even asked about them. He pays for the maintenance while we sort out the divorce. Divorcing a man who is so cruel towards his children's need, should I still talk about the children in my emails to him ? There is nothing to talk other than his financial responsibility towards us. I know him well, he left when he was out of control of his own world and was unable to cope and very lucky of him to find a good accusation towards me to leave the family.

He made a choice to divorce and agreed to the terms, he should bear the responsibility of his action. Since we are almost there to end the marriage, there bound to be some financial discussion involved, and he finally made his most hatred cursed on me...he blamed me for his failure in life, career and everything. He blamed me for not understanding him when he faced tough time which he just left the house and told me he found someone. He blamed me for treating him like a money printing machine...when I married him, he was never a rich man's son, he drove an old junk that broke down easily on the road. I knew he was never a rich but I see the value of him as a hard working young man with great ambition. And now, the blamed is me that destroyed him.

Since the day he wanted a divorce which I accepted it, I have no hatred and anger because I always think it is meant to happen and fated. But now, he seems to vent his anger on me and he still feel that it is my fault. He even threatened me that he will cease communication with me and he could if he wants to stop the maintenance.

It is very very very sad to hear this. I must say it has been awful last night receiving this email just before I went to bed. That is life....and it will only get better and brighter from now onwards. I am determined only to make tomorrow greater than yesterday. The old chapter is about to close...I am glad.

With metta to all :)

Coping with life


Even though I have gone through more than 2 years of separation, months of working on the divorce, and months of coping with life, getting a life and etc...I realize that coping with my life situation is not as simple as I have thought of.

I thought I have come out from the problem I was in..and I have emerged as a woman who has put every problem behind and moved on. Actually, from day one when I was still very vulnerable and emotional till now, I have only moved on in a more confident way. Everyday I see the changes in myself coping with the family. Maybe this has something to do with self esteem that I had to face while divorcing.

My children is the most important thing in my life and they are with me everyday. I learn to cope with them, their demands and life. Once I thought I could cope well, and now when I reflect I saw myself wasn't really ready and I was a lot more impatient. Now, I see myself a lot more calmer and relax when I am with them.

It is this time of the year that I feel it is a test to me. It is a new start for them and they have new schedule for me to get adjusted to. I need to plan and organise for them and to make time for myself. Previously it was only 2 children attending school, now all 3 are...and it also means that my expenses have gone up.

Life is never easy...just take it easy !

A walk down the memory lanes


The last day of 2009 I decided to start the spring cleaning. I have been thinking a lot about it months ago but don't know why, just couldn't start it. Finally, I decided that I have to do it because I want a good start for 2010.

The spring cleaning is actually to remove the personal items of my Ex. He left the house 2 years ago and never removed anything. Everything was in its original place for more than 2 years. I am glad that my maid was really helpful. As for me I need to sort out things on behalf of him is not easy. When I look at his personal belongings..I started to think if is necessary to keep still if those items were never touched for 2 years ??

While sorting out the things, I came across some photos. These photos took me down the memory lanes of the time when we were still courting, various trips that we went before we got married and eventually the wedding photos and some photos with the children. I also found some documents while I was planning the wedding including the wedding invitation list and greeting cards from friends who attended our wedding.

So the spring cleaning process is not that easy and it can be emotional if I was still fragile and emotional. It is also good to do it now after 2 years and I no longer feel sour and hurt so badly. If I have done it earlier, I could have done it emotionally.

Now I am happy because I have done a major one and it is also good for CNY preparation. This exercise seems to me like a "revamp" or "reorganising" my life.

Glad I did it :) A new year with a new life for a new ME !

New 2010

HAPPY NEW YEAR !!! 祝大家新年快乐!

My very first post for 2010..........

I kept the children stayed up just to witness the new year. From our balcony and the windows of the condo, we have many different fireworks to usher the new year. Now I am no longer feeling uneasy but very happy.

Guess what was I doing about 2 hours before the new year ???? I was clearing some old stuff of my ex...I went through boxes and piles of documents and also found lots of photos, as if I have just walked through some memory lanes of our lives together. Our wedding and honey moon photos as well as many photo over the years. I also found a receipt of a hotel stay at some resort that I was never there before......hahahahaa !

It is over...finally the lawyer managed to speak to him and he is sending the documents over by next week. Keeping my fingers crossed :)

The first phone call was to my parents....and I made a long distance call too.

Once again, this is a year with great promises and dreams will come true for all !

Love and metta to all :)

My resolution and things to do for 2010


Wow...2009 is about to end real soon. I am waiting for the countdown. Somehow inside feeling a bit anxious and uneasy....

We always ask ourselves what have we achieved ? I usually don't measure it to exact, but overall I think my biggest achievement is the mental happiness.

There is lots to do for 2010 and I am sure I am on the right track to achieve some goals in life. I have posted in my facebook for all my friends :

Be innovative, have a positive outlook, make it exciting and happening, review the past quickly, let it stop there and move on to better tomorrow, smile and be happy always, live a contented 2010....dear all, have a merry and happy new year 2010 :)


I need to add more :

Stay focus
Stay healthy
Stay vibrant
Stay in love
Stay spiritually high

Keep well
Keep eating only healthy food
Keep bad habits out
Keep positive vibes
Keep spending low
Keep saving high

Spread happiness
Spread love
Spread no disease
Spread message of peace

and whatever that is good...

Happy New Year to all !!!

With metta :)
