Life's Little Guidepost

Life is full of disappointments, that is why it is an interesting hell pit. Some sometimes, failing is not necessarily a bad thing, it is just a prelude to better things that is coming. There is a saying in Chinese, if the old one doesn't spoil, you will not get a new one.

Life has been a series of disappointment but it does have its occasional highs. The little trip to a nice coffee shop with that aromatic coffee that merely costs RM1.50 that taste more heavenly that a Java Chip Coffee with Whipped Cream and Hazelnut crumbs. I always thought I will be following my dreams, to be playing the guitar and do what my heart desires and lead a happy but necessarily a wealthy life. Unfortunately health took a turn for the worst and I was unable to even play the guitar without getting cramps, so there goes a 3 year effort. But not all is lost, I ended up doing something that put me in a position to bring some changes.

Then a barrage of events came and left like a hurricane. Total destruction after its visit. I thought all was lost, but hey, I can still write and blog.

Creation of #steem-cartoon

I would have never thought that by blogging I would be meeting really awesome people whom their work I have only seen in the traditional prints. This is the platform where I met people that really stood their ground for me, people like @sireh, @aurah, @rambai, @cartoonistpandan and many others.

There is a saying that goes like, 'if life throws you lemons, you make lemonade'. Well, that is if life is kind enough to throw you lemon. If life throws you shit, I guess I will start a fertilizer plant.

Was reminiscing how #steem-cartoon came about how it all unfolded and now it seems to have its own traction. Still very much loving the design that @cartoonistpandan has created for us all. Came across this with a friend in a window display and couldn't resist taking a picture...

Such a beautiful owl. Now with one big project which is likely to be the biggest project for this year that I will be planning together with @calebleejl and @zhusatriani will be a music concert. Details will be unveiled soon. I hope that this effort will bring us far.

But until that happens, this Saturday will be spent with family and this little one who is always sleepy and shitting all around the house...

The is always camera shy. Its either she will turn away or when she is caught unprepared she will shut her eyes. Now, lets see where failure shall lead me from here onwards...
