With the new Covid-19 lockdown in the entire Malaysia, I felt the feeling of not wanting to do anything. It’s not that I don’t cook or do what is needed to be done. I just feel the restlessness that I haven’t felt for a long long time.

A dear friend suggested that I sew, another suggested I read, run workshops…. etc..

I realized that it isn’t the outside doing that is causing this unsettled feeling. As I sat and looked inward, I noticed that we are constantly reacting to what life brings us. And if there is no stress or events that we must attend to, there is like a loss of an identity. To many this is like a hopelessness. “You must be lost!”, “there has to be a purpose in your life”.

As I tune into these voices of the masses, I realize that there is a lingering feeling that tinted my life. Thus, a constant connection with the inner self helps to re-establish oneself back to the reality ——a reality where fullness and abundance is always there, waiting to be experienced.

Doing what is in front of me. That is my entire purpose for this precious moment until the next thought or the next thing that show up and I move on. From this place, life can be lived very simply.
