Month of the Year (8 Mar 05)

RECEIVED an Chinese sms today in celebration of Woman's Day:
" A woman needs not be very beautiful, so long as she is deeply loved. A woman needs not be very wealthy, so long as she is living in happiness. A woman needs not be very powerful, so long as she is leading a life of dignity. "

Being a woman constantly caught up in the mad rat race of life, wanting more and more out of it, at the end of the day, isn't all I want is just to be living happily after all? What is the point pursing those beauty, wealth and fame when eventually not blessed with love and happiness?

This month is a traumatic one for me. Yes, your Missy is 27 turning 28, that is 25+3 = 30-2 = 28.

Don't know when I have started to be dreadful of B-days. Perhaps is when I have passed 25 and considered in "late twenties". Or perhaps is now that I am approaching 30. Actually to be honest, it is not so much of the figures that hurt me, it is more of the fact that I am still at where I am after all these years of slogging, chasing, sacrificing and waiting. Sadly year after year, I have not progressed.

I am giving myself a little present this year. For the first time, I am taking off from work, to release myself from tension and hopefully break from all the rattling.

On this day when the ecliptic and celestial equator crosses each other, when the period of daylight and darkness are of equal length, all I want to do is to free my mind from all thoughts and give my myself some breathing space.
