I wish I could bake pastries like she does. Colourful cupcakes and chocolate croissants etc. First I need to get an oven … tsk!
A feel good movie that kinda shows how people sometimes need to do things for themselves, instead of always for their loved ones. And perhaps, sometimes, that’s all that’s needed to “take care” of that special someone else in your life. A friend was sharing the other day about how her bf keeps saying that she’s not there for him. And each time she says that, she just gets lots of question marks in her head. I think if my non-existent other half tells me that today, I’d probably still have a couple of question marks, albeit better than I used to be.
I never used to understand how “I need to be happy before I can be with someone and be happy too.” or how “I’m not there for him…” or even “I don’t know how to take care of him…”. I think I have a better idea these days. It is true that each of us needs to find our own happiness before being able to be happy sharing our lives with a significant other. Otherwise, all we’ll be doing is bringing our mess from our lives into 2 lives, often creating quite an irrecoverable mess.
I have perhaps reached this point in my life where I am truly happy and contented with my life. Of course there’s so much more to do in life. But as of now, for what I have today and for everything I’ve wanted for myself, I must say I’m contented. There is nothing much to gripe about. In fact, there’s so much more to be happy and thankful about.
