Shell Shocked
I mentioned very briefly about my "washing machine accident" on my blog a few months back. That incident caused me to move around 3 flats for a span of 2 months. Just as I was about to feel at home again, the bill for the repairs came. The amount is no small amount. It is enough for me to want to run away and hide myself in the jungles of never-neverland.
But, running away to never-neverland is not an option. The easiest solution admittedly is to hide, "start anew" and put the whole incident in the recesses of my unconscious. However, I don't think I can. Not just because of my personal resilience but also because I just cannot.
Not only can I not turn my back from my obligations as MCP, I also cannot suddenly forget my belief that everything in life is a learning experience.
I know one day I will all credit this to experience and proudly look back at how I handled the situation. But today, I allow myself to be shell-shocked as I find ways to flatten this bump on my road.
I know the solutions are just waiting to be discovered. Until then though, I know I have learned my lesson not only about washing machines but also about facing my own mistakes. Pretty soon, I will also add an extra snippet of wisdom about forgiving myself. :)

P.S. I know it has been a long time since I celebrated someone in my life. But as my blog heading says, this is all about celebrating learnings in my life everyday. :) I felt I needed to explain but don't worry, more people will come. :)

I've come to believe that for most of us, never-neverland doesn't exist because the mind just doesn't let us forget what has happened..
Though the mind also lets us to think straight and focus on the bigger picture in life :)
