I am truly blessed, grateful and thankful for turning “41”today - despite what is going on in the world today. They say life begins at “40” and it certainly does. For me it has open my eyes to wanting to be the person I want to be. I have found 3 photos that I cherish – I am told they are me, I hope they are, as that is all I have of me as a baby. Looking at these photos looks like I was a screamer (I had a voice lol). This time last year I was in Mauritius celebrating my 40th with my Husband, Kids, Mum and Dad. It was my first time there and it was truly amazing to see a Country/Island where my parents are from and from where my heritage comes from. I received a card from a employee at the hotel. He did not know me and I did not know him so I knew these words were from that place beyond the stars. Well what have I done and experienced this year that I can knock off my bucket list? Mauritius - Undersea Walk, A trip in a submarine, Kayaking. Sydney – Visited the Blue Mountains (what a beautiful place), Got to see the Royal Family at the Sydney Opera House, Did the Sydney Harbour Bridge Climb for my 10th year living with Rheumatoid Arthritis, Met the Sunrise team who we watch every morning. Hong Kong – Disney Land for the first time, Cruising in Hong Kong on a Junk and having it all to ourselves, Visited the Tian Tan Buddha, Avenue of the Stars, Sharing a 26” pizza on Hollywood Ave with my clan and we polish it up lol. Macau – Got to see St. Pauls Ruins, Gondola Ride at the Venetian, Watch the House of Dancing Water one of the amazing shows I have ever seen. Kuala Lumpur – Flew business class on Malaysia Airlines and also stay overnight at a truly beautiful hotel (compliments of Malaysia Airlines). After 13 years of staying at home and dedicating myself to my kids I have started working and finally doing something for myself. Last but not least turned 18 years of marriage. Still together and loving each other. What have I learnt? LIVE –By example. Think before we act. As actions speak louder than words. LIFE – Appreciate life. Life is too short and there is always someone else out there that has it worse then you. In a blink of an eye we can be here and the next we are gone. Evaluate what is important and what is not. Experience life don’t wait till it’s too late. LOVE – Never be shy to show our love as when we love we have the ability to show an emotion that has the ability to change people. LEARN - Everyday is an experience whether it is good or bad it is an experience. Learn from it. The bad experience whether it be from someone or something, make a conscience thought of not to have that behaviour never stoop down to that level always try and be that better person. We are never perfect there is always room for improvement. After all we are always a work in progress. LAUGH – Most of all Laugh, it does so much to the human spirit. It has the ability to wash away all your worries, it works wonders for your health, and cause happy and special memories (good times) between family and friends. Saying goodbye to 40 and embracing 41. LIVE LIFE to LAUGH, LOVE and to LEARN 25 September 2014
