Now when I turned 18, maturity seeps in. I look back and see how I have lived my life. I cannot deny that there has been many ups and downs, fun times and sad/angry times. But at the end of the day, I think and realised  many people come and go, but many friendships/relationships have faced the test and remained.

To get to where I am today, many sacrifices have been made. I'm not saying sacrifices are a bad thing. In fact, 18 years on this earth have taught me that to hold onto better things, many good things must go. I've seen how God worked in my life, giving and taking things away from me. Sadness is there of course, but good things still come my way. God plans things for us that prosper us instead of harming us. We, humans, are definitely unable to see what is absolute good and bad therefore, we are unable to decide what is right for us. We need a higher being, God.

I don't ask for complicated things. I'm happy with a simple life. This is another lesson learnt from growing up. A few good friends, fun memories is probably all I ask for. I just want a good life.
