CCK Supper Gang

.
On my way home after the supper, I was filled with gratitude.
Really grateful and happy to know this group of friends. 
Each of them is so special and has achieved so much in their own rights.
.
This is a transition period in our lives.
PY is leaving for London.
XR is having a little one soon.
RF might be settling down soon.

I like the background:
LIVE OUR DREAMS

Moving On and Letting Go...

My last night in my home of 20 years.
I did not feel anything last few days, as I was very busy with the packing. Right now, I am feeling abit sad to leave this Humble, yet Happy Home.
.
A few years ago, I wrote "Gotta take photos of Daily Life" and pasted it on my board. The seemingly insignificant and mundane things are really precious to me. A normal family dinner, A warm cup of Milo, Mum's Cooking etc...
I learnt not to take anything for granted, as nothing is permanent.
That's the impermanence of life
.
How many of us have the wisdom to know that physical items could never fill the void in heart?
How many of us have the wisdom to appreciate simple things in life?
How many of us have the wisdom to move on and let go?
.
I threw/recycled/donated/gave away many things.
Life is a cycle.
I had nothing and felt incomplete.
I started to buy things to feel happy and important.
Obsessed with collections & possession. However, those physical items could never bring lasting happiness.
Then, I realized I do not need alot of things.
.
I am moving on and letting go.
I am still learning to let go...
.
Below are some items of sentimental value, which i chose to let go:

.
Eventually, everything has to go.
The Validation of the Impermanence of Life Again.
I am very fortunate and lucky to have a good family and friends who accompanied me over the years.
Not sure what the road lies ahead.
But I had a good life already.=)
Extremely Grateful for that.
