It's all worth it...

Time went by so fast. Everything seems to be in fast forward mode lately. Seems like time wanted to be chased but it does not want to be caught.  Time's mind only understand its own. As a tribute to the ever parody of time not being able to be brought back... I let it flew away, but I made sure that every nano-second counts.

It has been 4 months since I reunited with this old love - writing.  Having been given a delightful entry which will highlight my present life, I vowed to continue this love affair with writing.  But like everything else, it is so difficult to establish a steady relationship especially when there are so many things that needed immediate attention. But no, it's not going to be short term.  

However, like all start-up relationships, water needs to be tested. The affair was really fascinating in the beginning then the flame simply dies down as days go by. But the fire will keep on burning like an endless night need light.  

This is how I feel. Like when I felt the urge to write and start my advocacy. Simply put, I have no right to stop halfway through the journey.  It is only a beginning.  How do we keep the fire burning is now the "million-dollar question".  The answer would be - keep on loving!

And I would keep on doing just that.  With the rate my little boy is doing at the moment. Time seems to freeze all of a sudden.  The time I heard him utter a word a few weeks back made all these worthwhile.  The research. The sleepless nights. It is now worth it. The emotions could not be translated into words.  Day by day as he explores the world of language, the worries slowly fades. It feels like receiving a wonderful gift - every new learning seemed like a monumental milestone.  

Now, words seem to pour in day in and day out. Maybe not as big and fast as the others but real words nonetheless. 

"How old are you?". "Two". - So simple, so shallow and yet so PRICELESS! "One... two...tee...fo...fa...sic...sev...ey....nay...ten!" Good Lord! Broken words but WORDS from my son's mouth.  "Pol (apple), egg, cake, yo-yo, pik (pink), rey (grey), sta (star)...and it keeps on pouring in."

The day i heard him counting :)

He knows his numbers and can even point at each one even if asked randomly. He loves to read even if all his books are old and tattered. He loves to play the keyboard, dance, hums a tune and mimics his dad. 

Cannot go to bed without reading :)
A gift from Mc.Donald's a year ago...

Really, only time will tell.  As the mystery of my little angel unfolds, I will savor each moment.  I know it's not going to be a smooth ride but I'm sure in the end it's going to be a blast.  I just have to keep the faith and let things be. 

Wipe that smirk off your face! :))
It is truly all worth it...
