The Polar Dream

So I'm sitting here typing in uni alone cause it's the semester break, everyone's out there having fun or back in their hometown and I'm here finishing some tasks before I leave for a long conference tomorrow. I'm really excited, there's gonna be 600 plus delegates. It's simply insane. Thinking back, I'm gonna be facilitating with some of my teammates from my team 'Tiger' last year. How time flies, people changed for the better and now we take the same path of growing further together. I truly hope to plant some seeds and inspire some beans to sprout during this conference. It did wonders to me, I hope the same for others. That's the beauty of being in this organisation.

The thoughts that linger in the air, it comes and goes according to the direction of the wind. You get hold of some and some, it sticks with you like stubborn pollen. One of them speaks, "How do you know if you're happy?" When you're physically alone and you say, I'm comfortable being alone, I'm grateful for the soul given back to me when I woke up this morning, I'm thankful for this very moment that I'm living in and there's nothing more that I could have asked for. People say you're weird but you know that you're unique that way. You're confident being the quirky you because that's who you truly are. You are significantly more vulnerable to certain people compared to others. Funny thing, you're not afraid that they may backstab you because you know that everything is a choice, out of free will. You have chosen this path and you naturally assume responsibility over it. So what's happiness. When a person says, "I'm happy"? To me, being happy comes with gratitude. That way, it's a sustainable form of happiness, a higher form of happiness.

It's a short post cause I'm gonna go back to the 'epic love story' I started reading after a year it being on my shelf. Tata and Happy Chinese New Year, lovelies. :)

She's beautiful, he's beautiful.
But life has its magnificent way of spicing things up.
