Dedicating this post to the kindest people I know

Amy, you know that feeling? That sense of eagerness for the moment. Optimism for the future. And confidence that you are exactly "when" and where you should be. That feeling that makes dark days lighter and light days brighter. That precedes breakthroughs, conquests, and euphoria.  Yes, that feeling! Well, it doesn't just come.  You have to give it to yourself. Go on.      The Universe

This message came into my e-mail box right on the dot this morning. Today, I finally am able to sit in my own living room instead of the white sheeted hospital bed in Assunta hospital that I have been lying on for a week. I will talk about the reason of admission on another day since most of you have asked me about it. 

However, this blog post is for me to express my gratitude to a few (maybe more than that) people because the one thing that you learn from a traumatic experience is that the most important thing in life is to have people that loves and care for you when you most need it. After all, "A friend in need is a friend in deed", right?

Firstly, it is an understood gratitude that my utmost gratefulness goes to my parents and my family. My father stayed with me in the hospital throughout my stay. Also, my mother, siblings, grandparents, aunt and uncle came almost everyday to visit me. 

Secondly, my boyfriend, Wei-Lim, who despite the circumstances he is in has come to visit me several times until I was discharged. 

I also want to thank you, Kavidha (my big mama) for visiting me on the second day and bringing me a jar of positive energy. You also wrote an encouraging message and placed it in the jar which, lifted me a bit while I was at my lowest. 

Imran, Imran, Imran, thank you for bringing me good books on the third day and told me interesting stories while I was beginning to feel depressed in the hospital room. 

David oh David, your call. Thank you so much for calling me. It might be a small gesture but do you know how much impact it did for one person? Truthfully, it lifted my mood a lot and Kavidha was there while you called so it was double the comforting energy. 

My unicorn Alex, it seems to me I will always be your unicorn too, right? Thank you Alex for messaging me such positivity. It contributed a lot to the healing of my soul. 

Elicia, oh my pretty Elicia, thank you for wanting to fly over to KL to visit me despite being in Malacca. The thought counts and your message made me smile when it was hard to smile. 

To Richard, Wan Sin and Carmen, thank you for all the funny puns and jokes. I'm not sure if it was intentional but it sure did made me laugh and feel much better. 

To the sweetest couple, Kristy and Elden, thank you for giving me a surprise visit al though I was already discharged, which I sincerely apologize for not informing earlier. Thank you both so much for the kind and sweet surprise visit. May God bless both of you.

To James, Man Dee, Zee Haw, Charlie, Melvin, and Thirumagall, thank you for messaging me on Facebook. Thank you for your concern. I really want to thank you all very much. May all of you be blessed with good health this year.

To Zun Zen who has been actively wishing me to get well on almost every SNS I have posted on. Thank you dear. You are always such an angel. Thank you for your caring gestures. 

Sean, oh Sean, thank you for your messages and blessing. God bless you too my friend.

Amy Lim.
