Passion and Creativity--- Take time with your Kids

When you have  kids in different stages of primary school (like for me) I have Grade 1, 4 and 6, imagine my everyday struggles to maintain the equality of time with my kids,  it's like going back to school  only this time I have to actually review, comprehend and study hard so I won't get that bad reviews from my kids... my kids are my most absolute life's critic, So I always ensure to have that thumbs up from them in whatever I do.

Also, I really don't know where do kids these days get so smart and intelligent that I feel the older they get the more I become obsolete in many things, I'm a computer science graduate, that's a clear 4 years of sweat and hard work in school, but my kids are able to do codings and 3d games in just a snap!! they can navigate mainframe without proper training my GAWD!!!!! it's 4 years of college VS an hour of google and youtube and whalllah!!  it blows my mind!! 

Anyway, even at their advantage, I always win their approvals when it comes to creative projects, I feel that I am able to express myself and love for my kids whether for school, events and normal creative days.  I super love working with colors and its a great way to share that creative passion with kids and know that by doing so, I have created an intimate bond and I'm always looking forward to more bonding moments with my kids.

I strongly believe that parents, should invest more of their time to their kids than work, we have many reasons why we work so hard but nothing worth every second of our time that being with kids and family. we are not getting any younger, everyday is an oppotunity to things right and bright. 

Take time to be with your kids!!

I read once  that" to be successful you must first conquer yourself before you conquer your dreams",  

After having kids, I suddenly have that struggle to get back in shape, imagine my frustration seeing myself in 75kgs with acne all over my face, I battled my postpartum depression by myself not knowing where I am heading, there was a point in my life where I have to question myself if I have made the right decisions, I'm a free spirited person, I love to travel, do things on my own, creative in so many ways, loner and most of all lazy, yes!! I'm lazy, growing up with grandparents makes one very lazy and special at the same time.  

I don't use to having someone mandate me and get jealous when I want to make time for myself, it's too much for me to take but I have conquered all these frustrations by looking into it in a positive way, I have accepted the fact that, destiny has brought me here and that I am gifted with the opportunities to experience life and become an instrument of life. I owe it to my creator to be grateful for what I have become and what I can offer to the world.

I know, I still have a lot to learn and roads to take, I must conquer myself before I conquer my dreams, here's a pledge to myself that from today, I will follow the 5 second rule, that is to listen to my heart and inner self, to take things one step at a time, to start living a life and follow my heart's desire. I know it's not easy, not even desirable at my stage, but I absolutely up for the challenge. I have a clear vision of myself, the things I want to pursue and I want to do in my life, I will not allow any negative thoughts in me nor into my system. 

for all the working moms out there, let this be a day that we all stand for what we want to do in life, to become the best mother, wife and a person we want to become, let's begin by working on our plans to become successful in many aspects of our lives.  let this be the day that we can say: I AM WORTHY OF SUCCESS AND I SHALL CONQUER MYSELF.

Happy Mom... Happy Household...

Have you ever in a situation where you feel really blank…. I mean, you wanted to write something yet nothing comes into your mind but to stare the blank word file in your PC, I was exactly like that a few minutes ago, it feels really really really dumb, 

I thought, I was having that Alzheimer moment, I can’t figure how to overcome, thankfully the music helps me to relieved, it’s a snap, a blink of a light suddenly energize my brain from its deepest state of sleep… 

Hi Everyone, I’m here, it’s been a while isn’t it?? Been busy lately, Kids are growing up so fast and school requires so many projects very now and then, I was literary coping up with all the schedules and work deadlines, I sometimes feel I’m so powerful by completing all the necessary task with a smile on my face. Being a working mom is commitment that challenge you in a lifetime, making all impossible possible!! That’s how super mom do it!!

So how to keep a balance, well, to tell you honestly,  I never had a training or diploma of being a supermom, it’s a task that takes time to learn, I’m a struggling mom before, 

I have no idea that motherhood is like a total transformation from being happy single, but you know what! , I enjoy every single moment of being a mom, all I can say to all mothers out there, try to find that moment for yourself and take advantage of it, ensure you have that time for yourself  and I’m not  saying that you invest so much to it, but keep it at minimal, we often think that we should focus more of our kids and households placing ourselves at the end of the list. 

While I agreed to have that focus for the family, I would strongly consider having that extra moment for yourself by doing the things you love  and learn new things,  motherhood is not just keeping your household clean and perfect, it requires happiness within,  so next you find yourself out shopping with friends or going to gym for a yoga, please don’t feel guilty it is yours to enjoy!! Happy household is a result of happy mom never forget that!!

Peace out!!
