As Time Flew By ...

In the last 10 years of my life, I have had the opportunity to travel across different countries, observe different cultures, interact with a variety of people, and thus have an exceptional multitude of experiences (So I firmly believe in any case.)

These ten years have been the most formative years of my life. The lessons I have learnt and the friends I have made shall always stay with me.


Each individual is unique, and so is their interpretation of right and wrong. I have come to accept that there are NO absolute rights and wrongs. In a given set of circumstances, an option can be better or worse than an other.

The successful people I have met, have had the following things in common, their ability to: accept and adapt to change, effuse positive energy, enthuse people to achieve greater heights. Their tolerance of other cultures and religions is also something I observed.

I have learnt that each individual is only hindered by their limited imagination. If you open your mind then nothing can stop you from improving your lot. You are ultimately the ruler of your destiny. You need to get up and get a hold of it. Otherwise, you will flow along with the rest of the herd. You will still lead a full life, but not necessarily one which you are satisfied with.
