Yesterday was my….hmmm…34th birthday (gosh, the number so big, it’s SO mouthful!) Some may say, it’s just a number, while others are so concern about the number being bigger year by year.
So, what do I feel? Yes, 34 is just a number (and it is quite a BIG number, I must say), but I feel great. I went through a great journey and I still am. I believe that the journey will continue just as far as He allows me to travel and while I’m at it, I know that He will always be there to guide me through it.
Over the years, I’m so grateful for all the wonderful things endowed to me by the Almighty in so many ways…. for the strength and patience bestowed upon me… for the wonderful family that I cherish always… for the amazing circle of friends who are constantly around me… and for the good health which enable me to enjoy my life to the fullest. Most importantly, I thanked Him for the greatest gift of all… my husband and my two wonderful children for without them; life would give a different meaning to me.
Yes, my 34 years of journey took me almost everywhere….. from startling experiences in life to the most tearful, heart-breaking, nerve-wrecking time of my life. Miracle worked in strange ways and I later came to believe that there are always reasons for everything that happens in our lives.
So I welcome the number 34 with an open heart…. And thanks a zillion to those who called me, sent me SMSes and emails as early as 12.01am on 26 March 2006, just to wish me Happy Birthday. Boy, am I lucky to have friends as wonderful as you guys!

Plan A is to tabung RM2 per day until we have enough to buy flight tickets & shop & spa. Plan B is to decide when to go and it depends on Plan A totally..... hehehe, so we better start simpan RM2 per day from now... :D
