When it comes to a group dinner on a business trip, our Singaporean hosts just know how to spoil their guests with the classic Singaporean food spread consisting of all Singaporean goodness.
The chilli crab (although not the best I have had), served with hot, soft and fluffy deep-fried mantao buns, made up for all the countless hours spent enclosed within 4 walls and a screen. I have missed my Singapore food.
It’s 1.36 am. After a busy day of flying, appointments and shuttling back and forth between places, I’ve finally settled down in my hotel room. I finally get to put my feet up.
Besides the sound of me typing away furiously on my keyboard and the noise in my head, there isn’t much else. It’s kind of quiet out here. The silence is almost deafening. And it feels heavenly.
At 1.41 am, I should be way asleep. I know I’ll probably pay for it tomorrow, but I least I can smile to myself that for a good 3 days, I don’t have to wake up to screaming kids throwing temper tantrums, yelling NO in my ears and witnessing the never-ending fights over who gets to press the buttons on the elevator first followed by one kid screeching so loud in anger when the other kid got to the buttons first such that it is enough to wake up the dead…amongst other things…
Now, THAT.IS.BLISS.

These words are beautifully put together; nurturing…nourishing…heartfelt…compelling.
I hope you have found your one to share your life journey with and one whom you have decided to “settle” with – and by “settling”, it means taking that vow and commitment to never forsake the one you love or ever put them in second place. If you haven’t, I have always believed that there is always a someone for every one, although I would caution to never, ever state a claim to what aren’t yours, and that will never be rightfully yours – because that is just so, so, so very wrong.
May you live your life filled with compassion, empathy and being true to yourself. May we all triumph through the test of time. May all my wish dusts come your way.
