Light My Way

All the darkness in the world is not enough to overcome the light from just one candle…

An inspiration quote to remind myself and anyone out there. Yes sometimes we are faced with emotional turmoils, with problems that seem so big that it threatens to engulf us. But then, there are always two sides to a coin. Besides, when we are at our lowest, there can only be on path left – Up.

Until you know what is sadness, would you understand what is joy. So rather than focus on the pain, shall we indulge more in the joys?

May there always be a candle, a light somewhere out there to help guide us all in our life…

And for you, I give you the light of Earendil our most beloved star. May it be a light to you in dark places when all other lights go out.
~ Galadriel

Tapestry of Life

Fate twists and turns, bringing us joy, bringing us sorrow. And as our lives are interwoven, so too are our experiences.

My joys and sorrows are woven together to form my identity, my name, my life. The splinters scar me, the weaves create me. I am but a formation, a tapestry of life.

Loneliness

Singapore 2004

I was looking through my portfolio when I happen to dig this picture up. And perhaps it’s a mirror of my current emotions, as the picture gave me a sense of loss and loneliness. The below sentence sums it up very well:

I was not alone and yet, in essence, I was. I talked, I smiled, I laughed but I felt piteously empty inside.

I have learnt how to be alone when my biggest fear in the past was to be by myself. However, as fate dealt me the cards, I had no choice but to learn how to change, adapt, and overcome that fear of mine. Sink or swim, I had to choose. I chose to swim, but it does not take away the emptiness and loneliness that engulfs me.

Just like the lonely tyre hanging upon the tree, overlooking the distant sea. Empty and hallow in the middle, with no company in sight.

Shine on Me

Life is never a smooth straight path, is it?
