Life can only be understood backward, but it must be lived forward....
This reminds me of my past. In the past, I was an introvert, quiet and negative person. I am a pessimist. The good old Esther has gone away.
Time passed. People grow up. Mind changed. I have been thinking. Thinking about myself. There was so much changes. Self-realisation. All these changes...Gosh! I suddenly realised that my times passed like nobody's business. I am turning 29 years old this year. Darn...what have I learned? A lot. really, a lot. Through pain - most of them.
I've met many friends all these years. I've become a more open-minded person. I realised that many friends are actually respect and listen to me. I'm respected. Truly appreciate my friends. Totally different from years ago. I guessed I've become a better ME! I'm truly grateful to realise this.
Wiser. I've become a wiser lady too. Not believing so much of other say. Thinker. I'm a thinker now too. Reading lots of stuffs. Reading others' characters have been a practice to me. Trying to understanding people.
Days ago, my God-brother called me. To find out how's things with me here. Of course, asking me to buy some stuffs for his son. We talked a while. Updating him about myself and talked about Life. He paused a moment and told me, "Esther, I need to tell you something. You've really grown up. You're more matured now" The thought of a little girl - Esther came to my mind. She was so afraid to point out her opinions those days. Afraid to talk openly. Afraid to dance in front of people. He never listened to me except scold me all the times for what I've done in the past. But, hey man..now, he listened to me! I'm really happy and almost in tears, when he told me. I'm respected by him. That's important to me.
I'm happy because I'm well-appreciated and respected now by almost everyone I know. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
