In retrospect - on the 28th day of 2012

28 days since the start of the new year...Why was it that I struggled to recall 2011, what is the significance of 2011, or the lack of it... I suddenly feel so sorry for 2011. It doesn't deserve this..My mentor told me that with the start of the new year, the first thing I should do is to declutter my life..declutter the spaces around me. Get rid of old, unneeded stuff, donate them, throw them away...just clear the space. Clear the area so that you will have the space for all the abundance and blessings that's coming your way in this new year. This does not only apply to physical space but also mental space. Be rid of all the negative, old programs in your brain so that they can be replaced with new vision, better, upgraded programs that will propel you to excel! So she actually asked us to write all our mental baggage, the things that we regretted in pieces of paper, crumpled up the lil notes and throw them away in the bin..Somehow that felt good!

2011, was a year of tough decisions..Tough decisions will come by no matter what year it is..so I decided and moved on..Alhamdulillah, the blessings outweighed the predicaments and I survived..

If there's one thing that a running enthusiast hate, it's injury and in 2011, I broke a toe. a broken toe is better than a broken heart..It will heal eventually and I will run better soon.

My facebook postings on the eve of new year...to sum up 2011

2011 - I discovered that i need to relearn, unlearn old knowledge and continue learning new stuff and kearning can come from the younger ones

2011 - I met some wonderful people who confirmed that there are no right or wrong decisions , I just need to decide and make it right

2011 - I finally donned the hijab, a decision i should have made a long time ago, but Alhamdulillah it came in good time

2011 - I lost a dear young friend, a runner, an athlete.. Be healthy, be safe people..get your med check up done..

and I must mention that in 2011, my eldest left the nest to continue her studies, not far but enough to make me realize that life is short...appreciate your loved ones, make peace with life and more importantly make peace with yourselves...
