A Great Year Round


Life is a great big canvas, and you should throw all the paint on it.

Every New Year people make resolutions to change aspects of them.
A majority of people revert back to how they were before and feel like failures.
Many believe that New Year is a great time to start a new life that’s why “new year resolutions are made.

But my beliefs have change in my own experiences in my life. Every time year ends I started to reminisce the hours, days, and months of my year and be thankful for all the things that happened to me whether it’s good or bad, because my mom told me that everything happen has its own reason.

Since I was a child I start to live in very simple yet happy life with my traditional and complete family, no extensions and whatsoever. And I think that was one of the great things I have in my life. Then I've met Andy my partner in everything and I think he's almost perfect not exactly, but he always treat me that I am the most beautiful girl in the world. I feel so blessed having my family and my partner. I love them the most.

When I graduated in college I am very thankful having a job and I know this will benefit my family a lot and it really helps. My first and probably my last job was such a huge help for what I become right now. It was my training ground and I really appreciate it.

But as time pass me by without a job while managing and enjoying my small business. I’m starting to think that leaving my job was one of the best things that happened to me in a long time, I can’t believe I’m saying this… because everything is so much simpler and clearer now. I don’t have to worry and be stressed about my clients or my performance at work. No more brown-nosing like a dog to a boss who works a fraction of the hours. No more drama every time my boss nags me or my officemates gossip about me. I do and earn two times as much. Now that I’m not constantly preoccupied and stressed by work, I’m happy and it’s for real. I feel like myself again. I actually have time to think about everything and what I really want to do with my life.

Every time the year ends I don’t really list down any New Year resolutions, because I do set goals even if it’s not New Year. And I am looking forward optimistically for a great year round.

Because life doesn’t have to be complicated but still we have to keep going and move forward for a better life or should I say a happy life, because it is not only the destination that matters but also its own journey.
For our life is a big canvass and we should throw all the paint on it, what colours will I choose to paint in my canvass? Only I myself can answer.
