Life… Can be very overwhelming sometimes, and sometimes, you wish that time would just….stop, so that you can just enjoy the moment, to just breathe and to take things in.

But time never stops for you, and as you look in the mirror every day, whether you admit it to yourself or not, you grow a day older. So it is important to take a breather and just enjoy the moments.

🙂 Yesterday was an absolutely eventful day. Spent quality, quiet time with husband and son in the morning, went to a fashion show in the afternoon, an impromptu shopping trip after the fashion show and a dinner date with my girlfriends at night. By the time I arrived home, I was busy writing for my novel and by 11pm, I was dead tired and was about to hit the sack, but not before indulging a little bit by nibbling on the strawberry custard pastry that I managed to buy after coming back from dinner.

I know it is unhealthy to have meals just before you sleep, but hey…I only live once. Just once. So why not pamper and indulge a little bit and give myself a little pat for the back, for all the things that I have done for the day, and for having a better day than yesterday? I think each and everyone of us needs that. We often forget that if we don’t love ourselves and appreciate ourselves, other people most probably won’t either. 🙂

I never used to take a breather. I think  in some ways, I take myself way too seriously…perhaps because I have always felt that nobody else care…or take me seriously, but these days I’ve learned to lay back a little…and just…enjoy the moments. My life changed for the better the moment I start doing that. I feel much better, more beautiful and more confident with myself.

So yes, go ahead. Give yourself a little pat on the back, for having a better day today than yesterday. 🙂
