a short note from Niel

This 2009 already reach half of its lifetime, as I remember, we start with a good resolution and enthusiasm for our journey ahead of our life this 2009. I do.

As time goes by, our spirit, optimistic and happiness slowly fading away due to the ugly economy downturns which affect every continents, nations and families. We began to worry about our life ahead. In addition, we start to hesitate when come to decision making. We afraid of the failures that we encounter.

We afraid of getting hurt.

We are merely ordinary human being, the heart will ache over small and irrational things that happens which always beyond our mind to predict.

Don’t give up. Keep the hope alive, keep trying and persevere.

Helen Keller quotes that “Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired, and success achieved”.Thus, let us get over these small things and start focusing on the bigger picture. Let the heart ache, let it ache, let the heart ache… only through pain it will learn to be tougher and wiser not to fool by these little emotion matter.

In fact, this is the best and right time to test our ability and capability. How durable are we dealing with our life?

How high are we able to climb the ladder of success in the mist of economy illness. Even the little things such as how well are we able to manage our time, how we plan our financial, and how wise we deal with our conflicts. All these small things are actually small pieces of victory puzzle which will later accumulate to complete our puzzle of success.


Remember, our puzzle of life is still not complete. So, let us slowly put these small pieces of triumph together. Fill these small pieces with joy, happiness, hard work and satisfaction so that we won’t regret on it later.

I’m Niel.
