2013: Chase Your Dreams

Can you imagine? This is my 4th year-ender post. This year was a roller coaster ride, I tell you. But, everything is worth the steadfastness and hardwork. Btw, You can read my previous year-ender posts in the links below:

Basically, that's my 2013 according to my vague memory and my blog. Ah! It was indeed one of a kind. I thank the Almighty for sustaining my life this year and for continually blessing me, my family and friends. 

I have forgiven and fogotten those who had made me sickened this year. And I have yet to thank all those who made my year so happy and full of blessings. These are the people whom I owe my title, my everyday needs, my knowledge and my life. 

In shaa Allaah, as days go by, we will ponder that we are more and more getting closer to death. As each passing day should be cherished and made sure that we have contributed good things to our book of deeds.

So, we bid farewell to 2013. ^^

  6. Cheers to an even better 2014!

    I love the quote you put in to that photo: "Learn to appreciate the small things they make you feel contented easily."

    That is what I have learned this 2013 and true enough, although there tons of challenges and big boulders that seem to hinder me from getting to where I need to be, I have learned along the way that stopping by to appreciate the flowers make things even better. For if we fail to appreciate the simple things in life, we will never realize the bigger things in store for us.

    Congrats for being a CPA! :)
