You can do it!



Few things in the world are more powerful than a positive push. A smile. A world of optimism and hope. A "you can do it" when things are tough.--- Richard M. DeVos

2011!!!! How fast we have entered into the 5th day of the new year! I have been on a long break, with friends in town, and me falling ill the last few days. My husband is back to SG for a business trip and I am all alone at home in a foreign land. I have never have this experience before. Definitely feeling so edgy and sore about not being able to go back too. Its a decision that I have agreed that any trip below a certain no of days, we will not spend the extra $ for me to travel. Frankly, this is all because of $, we do not have the luxury for this.



2 nights has passed and I have learnt to smile. As I did it! To be able to eat alone, sleep alone and watch TV alone. For a timid me, this is something that I never thought I could do it! Its all in the mind! Sometimes you might not even realise that you have cross the barrier!



Smile and step forward as you can do it too!
