 The past week has been pretty hectic. 

Usually busy at work this week settling different issues, and there were also moments where I was questioning what exactly was the purpose of my job and what kind of value am I creating. 

Definitely, I am looking for a progression. However this is not something within my control. I can only make sure that I do my work well and do my best. However, this week was a lil stressful for me due to the different issues happening. Is it normal? Hopefully. 

I always thought my workplace is a comfortable ground, with helpful system, supervisors and colleagues, however past 2 years, many things have changed the flavour changed abit. It is still a nice place, but plagued with pretty more uncertainties. Nevertheless, I appreciated and cherished my work very much. I always believe that my efforts will eventually come to fruition soon.

Met Faith, Lorraine and Belvy for dinner on Wednesday to catch up and review about Friday with You this year. While we were all updating our lives, I teared up uncontrollably. I think there were quite abit of pent up emotions within me on the struggles I am going through. There are definitely no solutions coming from them, but what they can offer are sincere encouragement and guidances for me to continue to really base on faith and keep trying. I am feeling positive overall, as I think I am always able to pick myself up and move on after each setback. I very much want to fulfil my vow for kosen-rufu and for that to happen, I really want to strive to make actual proofs so that I can really encourage the people around me. 

Doing my best everyday. Must be victorious.

  Making a fresh start today, again.  My life have been on a stagnancy for more than a year now. There are many times that I have doubts, I beat myself up, I feel uncertain and I am curious what's next to come.  Time and again, I reminded myself to stay grounded, go back to faith and continue to strive.  The journey gets tiring, gets discouraging, and each time I will need to pick myself up, assuring myself and the people around me.  My life has been relatively comfortable and smooth and never did I think trying to conceive has turned out to be the most difficult problem to solve. It has been a draining journey mentally and financially.  As of today, we have already spent close to $10k without any progress. That aside, we had to manage immense pressure coming from the expectations from ourselves, our family and friends.  I chanted as much daimoku as I can, and did all the kofu things that I could, but I feel inadequate as I have nothing to offer as a l...

  I had a crazy week. It was quite emotional as we have lost a "yet to come to earth" family member. Whole family was grieving and I can only do my part in assuring and encouraging them.  Sometimes, life just hits in the way that you did not plan for.  The only way is to keep your chin up, and continue to move forward with the highest life force.  Work has been hectic as well, as I have been engaged in calls many hours daily to support a client. It was mentally draining and it has taken a toll on me. I had headaches the past few days, and was not able to sleep well.  I was super frustrated as I felt that I had less and less control over my life and the things I wanted to do. I felt that many things I am doing or intend to do had to be "approved" by people around me and I need to seriously get myself out of this rut. I may be overly concerned or thinking and I just had to push on.  I wonder if I should really pick up boxing/muay thai again as it is probably ...

  Had very revitalising meetings past weekend. Amidst alot of struggles I am facing, I also realise I am bound to face challenges in my journey of faith.  There has been so many inner struggles and self rationalisations, I am dealing with a mixed bag of emotions everyday.  What I needed was assurance through daimoku that things will be made right as long as I persevere with continued believe in the Gohonzon. I had a massive headache yesterday and noticed some kind of decline in my health (falling sick easily). I probably needed to restart my exercise routine and also review even more closely on my food choices.  There is so much to achieve, yet all in progress.  Let me strive for some victories so I can also encourage others.
