Today, I realize that not everyone is born with perfect legs, thus I learn to treasure mine.

Today, I realize that the weather has been warmer and more humid.

Today, I realize that the mattress I've been sleeping on has accumulated decades worth of dust.

Today, I realize that grandma's pumpkin cake is still best eaten piping hot.

Today, I realize that grandma left her employer's to bring me up.

Today, I realize that grandma's fingers are coarse, cracked, dry and peeling from decenniums of housework.

Today, I realize that all the money in the world can't buy faithfulness nor solutions. (It can be exchanged for a life without hardship and alcohol though.)

Today, I realize that health really is wealth.

Today, I realize that my mom is a coward on the road.

Today, I realize that I'm a coward too, in other aspects.

Today, I realize that if you care too much, you'll get hurt eventually.

Today, I realize that the amount of effort one puts into a relationship is not always reciprocated (like I didn't realize that before).

Today, I realize that I was am imbecile at 15, 16,18 and 19.

Today, I realize that I can put myself in others' shoes, almost perfectly, still.

Today, I realize that I'm still a good listener.

Today, I realize that no one will be able to figure me out, cos I can't figure me out too.

Today, I realize that I acknowledged these empty sensations which I've been shutting out.

Today, I realize that I shouldn't doubt my choice to choose Psychology as my major, because, it's what I strove hard for and I consider it one of the best choices I've made in life so far.

Most importantly, family, relatives and friends shape my living realm. As much as possible, I'd kick aside my insecurities and try forge stronger bonds with them.

Today, is the day I start living.
