Rainbow Rehab

By admin


For the past two days, I’ve been locked in a house with two screaming toddlers and a couple still very much in love. There’s a backyard filled with snow and a room stacked with mini kitchenettes and playhouses for little girls. Its about a 4-5 minute drive to an empty strip mall with old people sitting in a Starbucks drinking coffee because they don’t really need to do anything else in the day. Where am I?
Talk about a world that is the complete opposite of my existence.
This is rehab. Its a place where I can sleep for a million hours (if only the day had a million) and where my devices are shutdown, with only 3-4 people who actually have access to my local number. I spend my afternoons making little snacks while watching this 7-month cherub attempting to stand so she can dance as she giggles each time.
I’ve spent an hour running/walking on the treadmill (i’m so glad I packed my Nike+LunarGlides) while reading an inspiring book from Seth Godin. After dinner, I spend another hour rebuffing my French on one of these iTouch apps. I’m in bed by 9:30pm, sending a few emails out and getting ready to read another book.
I don’t remember if I’ve ever had this in my life. It’s all so new to me and yet it feels so necessary to have before I fly back to Asia for another year of my hustle and bustle.
Before I enter the beast that I once knew, I’m glad returning to this city with priorities: family first, then friends.

    This year has been memorable for many reasons and This year has been memorable for many reasons and it has been the year where I have introduced more self-acceptance in my journey. The feeling of lack and the needing to compare has faded into the opportunity to celebrate joy. 

By the act of surrender and flowing into alignment, the gift of abundance has been more evident than ever. Whatever I do to give comes back ten-fold through friendships, relationships and partnerships. I couldn’t have asked for a better way to close out my birthday and give a treat to those who don’t often feel celebrated. I wanted to share my blessings with them. 

Thank you @mykyochon for helping me organise, @ngohub.asia for helping me discover @destinywelfare and @nadiahnasirr / @heyjnrjh for being a part of this. 

More importantly thank you to Irene for offering these children a solid education during these formative years. 

Everyone remembers kindness and it is never a random act. ❤️

    Oh gosh! I was feeling the love yesterday from fri Oh gosh! I was feeling the love yesterday from friends and family. I felt so grateful to have everyone in my life, especially those who have taken the time to send birthday wishes. The pink candle represents the last year of this decade for me! So it was indeed a special one. My friends know me best when it comes down to being celebrated on my special day! How can one complain when there is an abundance of love being showered over me. Thank you for one of the best birthdays yet! 🥰🥰🥰
