These are some of the things I can say about life. Notwithstanding the challenges and trials that came my way; life's been good to me. I enjoy my work, I enjoy my hobby (mylotting and blogging.... I have had my downs too, but I always stood up and walked on. There was never a time that I was not able to get up. the days always followed my nights. I believe also that to be able to live life to the fullest, one must know how to love, to forgive and to understand other people. What more could I ask for? What about you? How would you desribe your life?

This year has been nothing short of a train wreck...
- Diagnosed with loss of cartlidge in my left wrist.
- Subsequently diagnosed with a connective tissue disorder called Marfan's
- Had a car wreck (Car flew into my lane from the other side of the highway)
- Diagnosed with having mitral-valve prolapse & regurgetation (Misfiring heart valve due to the MFS)
- Ended up in the hospital with a 5mm kidney stone
- Had trouble breathing and chest pains coming out of surgery and had to stay a week in ICU
- Had another car wreck (Tire blew, sending my car 20m down an embankment head over a$$)
- Diagnosed with yet another heart-valve prolapse, this time Aortic
- Had to have a tooth extracted due to abscess
Generally depressed and feeling like ... yea ... offing my self
Other than that...pretty good I guess...

Wow..that's probably where I'm at right now. I might be a bit better off without being bi-polar, except that depression and bi-polar are actually part of the symptoms anyway lol.

I can't change the past and I would not want to. Everything that has happened in my life so far has made me who I am, and has brought me to where I am in the present.
I would not be able to appreciate life so much now if it was not for all the difficulties and bad experiences I've had to go through in the past. I feel the worst is over now and the best is yet to come.
I have always loved life, even though it has not always been good to me.

Wow, that was an optimist's perspective. I agree with you, especially the last statement, that although life can be cruel sometimes, you still love life. That's how I feel too. That's pretty cool. Keep on and good luck to your future plans and endeavours. I'm sure with your kind of attitude, you'll be able to hurdle all humps that may stymie your efforts and be successful in the end. All the best and happy mylotting.

I guess this year has been a good one for me. I started a new job, I passed my exams, I passed my driving licence and baught a car, I'm closer to my bf and family, and I'm trying to enjoy evey moment to the full. I have my downs as everyone else. I feel stressed out sometimes but I try to have some good night sleep and wake up with a smile. I also started yoga this summer and its helping me a lot.

Thanks for the well wish, I wish you the same. May you have a good and healthy life too and may this year be as wonderful as the next coming years. Indeed, life is a chance to venture into the world and into other people's lives to share what we got; to help in anyway we can. because life is not a race, it is a journey sharing and helping one another in the road of life.
