It’s nearly my birthday, and what are the things I have learnt this past year which make it worth my while to say that I’m older and wiser? 
First, I have learnt the hard way, that it’s okay to say no. You don’t always have to oblige people while putting your own self in a difficult position.
Second, I have learnt to look out for my own interest, because I am my best champion.
Third, I have learnt that sometimes, it’s okay to let go. Of relationships that have seen better times, of friends of the past.
Fourth, I have learnt that will power is a big thing and miracles can and do happen. Watch out for another blog on my dad-in-law’s brave battle to live.
Fifth, I have learnt that negative thinking is like the acid that destroys the vessel it is kept in. Best to stay away.
Sixth, I have learnt that social media may be a double edged sword, but you can blunt one edge. When used wisely, it can open up possibilities.
Here’s to a year of possibilities. Because this WordPress account is my birthday gift to myself 🙂 Amen to that.
