[Theory/Rule No.2: Don’t go pick up the pieces]

Ok. This is indeed the hardest part. Relationship is like ornamental vase of the Tang dynasty (its just a parable, of course). Very valuable but fragile and we have to handle it with extra care. But once the vase is broken, don’t bother to cry a river over it. Maybe its Ok to cry a bit, but don’t just go mourn over it. The fact is, once the vase is broken, it will never could be mended. We might hurt ourselves with the broken glasses while picking and trying to mend it up. The prudent move is to get rid of the pieces and forget about it.

You have so many relationships to focus on; parent, friend, child(?), brother/sister, uncle/aunt, godparent, niece/nephew, atuk/nenek, cousin, etc. If you failed in a relationship, that doesn’t mean the sky is falling down.

Sometimes, I often being too focus in the broken relationship and deep-six the others. That’s what happened to me and I learnt so much from it. All I can do now is try to improve those relationships, iron out the problems, encourage others and spread a bit warmth and happiness as I go, and hey, you should do the same too! What could be finer?
