Update of my life...

I'm currently serving my national service as an FDC trainee...otherwise also known as an RP. Well.....I've not updated the site for a rather long time..Possibly due to my commitments and limited book out time. Anyway..As the saying goes.."one will only learn to treasure what one has already lost" certainly seems to exemplify the train of thoughts on my mind....Freedom has never tasted so sweet. Life in the army is all about regimental discipline and strict adherence to rules...sometimes even nonsensical and irrational ones....yet as quoted by my CSM...."Can't be helped"......life still goes on and i guess i'll jus hav to accpet things as they were.

Looking on the bright side things....at least i've widened my social of friends and met people from different social backgrounds and had certainly become more matured in terms of my perception of life.

Alas...many things in life are subjective...pain and euphoria...sweet and bitter...these are all in our minds. Life may be tough on one....inducing much pain and suffering...but if only one chooses to perceive things with an alternate point of view...one may just realise that these may just be tests put up to strengthen our minds and enrich our souls. To everything in this world...there is a reason...a reason to live...a reason to die...keep a positive outlook of life...only then will one discover the true joys life promises. Army life may seem like a torture.....but i believe that optimism is the one key element that will serve to help me live through it.
