Well, today, I penned down my goals for this year in my diary, hoping that, by looking at it everyday, I will be channeling my energy towards the fulfilment of these goals! I have always set goals for myself and BIG goals, i must say. But there comes a point in your life, after achieving the goal,you ask yourself, so.... Whats next! A sense of depression enters and flood your being instead of jubilation! Wonder if others too feel the same way? The only way that i over come that depression is by setting bigger goals so that i am challenged to do something more! When i say goals, it can be a personal goal, a professional one etc! I have set some 7 goals for this year and have yet to act on it!!!! Procrastination! How sweet art thou to the slacking mind and body! Well, am just gonna let myself skive for another day and start working on my goals from Monday(will it happen? gotta wait n see).

Today is a big day for my friend! A very important day in her career. I have always been there for her and more so her for me for about 9 years now! She has been so stressed about her job for about 4 months now, even having a break down n all! But she is so committed in sticking by her job for the mere fact that its her responsibility to be there till the project ends! I admire her devotion but am thinking is it all worth the while? We work so hard everyday trying to please everyone else except ourselves? Our minds get so flooded with priorities that seem important for the day/week/month and loose focus on our fundamental priorities! For me, satisfaction would be in being able to smile on my death bed whilst revisiting my memories!

We work very hard to provide all the material things for our family, but are we spending the most important thing with them?- time? Every day i wish i could spend more Quality time with my children. there are times when we are with each other 24/7 and yet, after tucking them in bed, guilt fills my heart as to the QUALITY time i had with them. I could have been with them in the same room and still not be there! putting down my thought, it reminds me, its time for half hour of bedtime stories and answering the WHY questions time with my kids!

Good night for now!
