Songs in my head

The needles, traffic, distance and the financial model were not enough...

But there were still two good parts of the week...

1. I finally managed to hear the acknowledgement of a problem and not a difference... I don't know if I or we can solve for this one but time can and its worth the wait to get it right...

2. There's a song in my head... it's there when I wake up, it's with me through the hospital smells and even the airport queues...

I came home this weekend... and was pleasantly surprised to find my lil baby cousin in bed... he's visiting for this week as his mum's away... it's been a saturday of beyblades, ice-cream competitions, JETIX and times tables... and man I suck at all...

Back to work on Monday and am looking forward to the week... and the next... and the next... and most of all the one after that...

To friday, the good times and great friends... Thanks...

After a two weeks of self doubt... I had my day. Things seem to be falling in place and making sense after all...

I guess a few of the biggest takeaways this fortnight have been...

You are as good as they say

You are better than you think

Some people will never be happy with you....

Some people will never be happy with you.... and it really doesn't matter

Your health is your only durable asset

A smile still wins hearts

A coffee can bridge gaps

When you need help ask for it... there are people who would love to walk besides you...

and

last and most important of all...

the power of good cheer is the greatest of them all...

my grandfather was diagnosed with 4th stage lung cancer three months ago... the doctors were very skeptical about him being able to withstand chemotherapy and doubted if it would have any benefit given his stage... nevertheless we started the treatment and after 8 cycles of therapy topped with all our family's love and my mother's unwaivering belief that we will fight this... his disease is not cured and perhaps never will be, but it is in regression and God's given us precious time with one of the most wonderful person's I have ever know....
