Re-writing again in 2026

+ If there was one thing in 2025 that I spent but did not make full use of, would be me paying the relevant subscriptions to keep this blog active.

+ My last blog post was on 19 Feb 2025. I realised this hours ago when I logged into WordPress and looked at the stats.

+ My mind raced back to that period and a sudden wave of emotions filled me up.

+ My beloved mother, who was diagnosed with lung cancer in Nov 2023, passed away in early Mac 25.

+ The automated emails from WordPress keeps coming regularly; to remind me to write something on my blog.

+ Then came more automated mails with the yearly bill – one for the domain and one for the WordPress service. I just let it be on auto-deduct; too lazy to write anything, too lazy to check the amount to be deducted. I was neither here nor there.

+ This “lazy” is not actually lazy; but just me, grieving deep down in my own way.

+ Days turn to weeks. Weeks then turn to months. If I waited just long enough I could say that it turned to years.

+ In keeping up with the spirit of coming into a new year (new year, new me innit?), I decided to pick up writing again.

+ I pray that this could be a consistent brain exercise. I can always stopped whenever I like, don’t I? The past 11 months have provide it so.

Until then, stay hungry, stay sane.
