Who Switched On the Light? October 15, 2007

You know…there are just so many things to be done around the house; the grass needs cutting, the windows needs wiping, the carpet needs vacuuming…and just sometimes, the light bulb needs changing.

A couple of months ago, one of our light bulbs over our dining table blew. Initially, I tried changing the light bulb (it’s one of those downlights) but the casing was abnormally (and terribly) stuck! After trying to pry it open with many sharp objects…I simply gave up.

Over the next few months, the family just lived with the fact of one less light bulb over the dinner table. Yes…we kinda accepted the status quo and dived into a circumstantial comfort zone.

It was funny but it took an old friend to share the insight of taking out the entire light bulb casing from the ceiling (thankfully another light bulb blew whilst he was visiting). And as I later learnt, the whole mechanism was connected with 2 simple spring coils. Oh…what a lesson to learn (& an embarrassing one too)…which really opened my eyes!

Once learning this…I quickly dashed into my dining area and got onto the table, pulled down the entire casing and changed the light bulb there. ”BOOM”…there was Light!!!…and the Light was so overwhelming. And we instantly realized what we were missing over these many months…practically eating “in the dark”.

Sometimes…that happens to the best of us, and in so many different ways. Doesn’t it? The Big Question is…“Are we ready to get out of where we are?” If so, Get Ready…Seek Counsel…Take Action…and simply Allow The Light to Enter.

35… October 1, 2007

In a few days time I turn 35. WOW…it just seemed not too long ago that I graduated from Uni (that was back in 1993). How time flies…It’s becoming more daunting to me as the day rolls by and it’s definitely something we ALL cannot run away from. 

How has time gone by for you? Have you enjoyed your journey thus far? Or are you filled with regrets of wrong decisions made in the past? Whatever the case, there is STILL time…

Even though we cannot change the fact that we are “losing” time…we CAN affect the way we live by the choices we make and how we utilize, (maximize) time. When we decide…we can actually “own” back our time, we take the First Step in living the life we were destined for.

We need to view our life in a New Perspective…For me; I’ve recently realized that I have another SHOT at life with at least 35 more years ahead of me. And the choice is mine to decide, “What am I going to do differently with this New Lease of Life?”

If you believe you can change the world, you can…and YOU WILL…if you begin to drive towards that with all your heart and might.
