Have you met your fate?

Filed in: Life Log — September 18th, 2007

Last Sunday, I attended another friend’s wedding dinner. It has been a long time since the last time I met my friend. He gained weight but filled with happiness (is gaining weight a problem of guys about 30s?).

At age of 27, I started to discover that more and more of my friends are married or will be married soon. I have another 2 friends who are getting married in the next few months.

Most of my friends found their other half, but there are still friends who are single like me. Some of them have never even dated before.

My mom never worries about me. As she said, “It’s all FATE. When it comes, it will come.” I understand why she said so, because she herself met my dad in the public bus in Taiwan. My mom is a Taiwanese and she married to my dad to Malaysia.

I am not sure if I will have the strong fate as my parents, but I do not worry much about it. I believe she is somewhere there and we will somehow meet someday.

How did you meet you other half?

    heh.. met my wife in McDonalds. I was a new crew, she was my trainer. Fight like cats and dogs during the first year. Mana tau ada jodoh? Thirteen years and 2 kids later, we’re still going to McDonald’s…

    THEORY OF CHANGE

    When i learnt thermodynamic in the UNI time, one the rule said that everything will aproach STABIL state unless INTERNAL or EXTERNAL input break the STBIL stage…

    If you don’t change, then everything will not change…

    If you continue sit in front of the square box without making any change, you can expect any change to yourself.

    Please initiate some change…

    My hubby and I first met on a blind date! One week after that, we started to ‘pak toh’. It’s that simple :-) Once a man are in a happy relationship, he automatically gains weight. Nothing to do with age, haha!

    I can’t help but comment on how understanding your mother is! But I think she’s right – when it’s the right time, you’ll meet her.

    haih, fate and love…my ‘favourite’ subject!
    i can understand the loneliness and the despair cos i feel the same way sometimes (still do) especially when you have peer/parents pressure.
    i remember telling a friend not too long ago that when i do meet my ‘fate’ one day, i will ask him ‘where the hell have you been all this while?!’ :)

    but seriously, its true that these things, cant force one. one day, some day, in the weirdest ways when you least expect it, you will meet someone who is your ‘the one’.

    i know its easier said than done. but have faith.
    meanwhile, find yourself, know what and who you are, be more open to others, talk to ppl, get out more… and oh yes, apply ‘law of attraction’! :)
    good luck! half the fun is the journey, rather than the destination!
