a little sadder now

just had a near three hour lunch with joe. its was a painful process at times, of the topic that was revolving around us. there were moments when the tears just welled up, others when i laughed heartily. it was a good 3 hr and it a meant a huge thing to me.

at the end of it all, when joe had mentioned the reason for initiating the lunch appointment..i guess i have officially closed a chapter of my life. even he felt that it was good and happier for me to move on. something that i didn’t expect especially coming it from his friend.

and now, i see it clear. i see the reason why i had wanted it so bad in the first place. and if i had to take a gamble to see if one’s pride is more important, i took it.

i lost the gamble, but i didnt lose it all. at least, my directions are clear now.

like joe aptly put it, if the situation were to differ, it would be him to change it. not me.

Hi there! Thanks for popping by. I'm Cherie, a ftwm (full-time working mum) to 3 lovely kids (2 boys & a princess) and my motto in life is to BE HAPPY. Sure, life isn't all that smooth but it's the mentality that counts, no? This blog documents my life. Or rather, snippets of my life that has passed me by. I love capturing life memories in the blog and being able to read back and laugh at myself (or anyone). I love to eat (A LOT), travel and paint my own nails so the blog is mostly about that. Is that considered lifestyle? Of cos, the family is also very much an integral part of me so there would be loads of memories about the husband and my kids - Jerry (9yo), Jerome (7yo) and Leia (2.5yo) and everyone else that's close to me. I like documenting the kids' milestones, their growing up years, their achievements (and sometimes, mine), and my struggles and battles with motherhood. It sure ain't easy. I love seeking out good food and travelling, is trigger-happy, love new gadgets, love exploring new places and strives to live life to the fullest. I aspire to travel the world as much as I can, to soak in the different sights across the various continents and visit all the Disneylands in the world (almost there!). Have fun reading and do drop me a comment to say hi! Love, Cherie Lim Find me on Instagram.

    Dear Cherie,

    take pride and be strong ya! At least after 6 years, u can see it clearer. 6 years is a long long time i must say, am i really admire u for handling it in ur stride. I am also gog through something like tat, but mine is more more complicated. As much as i do not know the whole picture of you ur story, but i do hope i can see some light soon. Sometimes maybe in fact, we try too hard..too hard to make things work…~hugs~
