Was very pleasantly surprised this afternoon when I received a reply email from a long lost friend – I was in fact worried that the email address I have is no longer valid. It felt so good to hear from someone whom you thought you had lost contact with.

Was chatting with my sister the other day. I made the remark that, for young kids, it may not be so good if they are the best among their peers all the time. My reason is that, once they get too accustomed to that feeling, it will be that much harder to handle and accept set-backs in future.
Created a new identity for myself - a new 'face' really - last night.
When we are young, we’d try anything to look older than our actual age. When we are slightly older, and not just restricting to women, we realise our earlier mistakes and instead try to look younger than the real age. It is only much later that many people become comfortable with their actual age.
It seems, for some of us, we end up spending a whole time in order to really live at our actual age!?
I really don’t recall when it started, but it seems that as far as I can remember I always had this mental picture of human relationships being like the casting of fishing nets. Whenever two strangers cross paths, even just a total stranger walking past on the street, an invisible thread is cast out and then you are tied together forever. If the ‘pull’ is strong enough, someday you will meet again even if for some reasons you two eventually become separated. I suppose this is what some people would call fate?
